  1. *“I’m not going to talk here about the senselessness and the danger of the very idea of trying to fight to victory with a nuclear power, which is what* [*Russia*](https://www.theguardian.com/world/russia) *is,” he said.*

    I wonder if this is lavrov having to remind himself of this especially given the likely state of their nuclear weapons.

    *He said resolving the conflict hinges on fixing its “root causes” – what Moscow contends is the Kyiv government’s repression of Russian speakers in eastern Ukraine, and Nato’s expansion in eastern* [*Europe*](https://www.theguardian.com/world/europe-news) *over the years, which Russia sees as a threat to its security.*

    He can’t be serious on this. The biggest threat to russian speakers the world over is russia throwing them in to a meat grinder from which none will return unscathed and their very aggression lead to NATO expansion.

    To this day I have to wonder just what goes on in the heads of senior russians. They live in this duality where their own actions hurt them and yet they blame the wider world for it while actively being terrorists and waving nukes around.

    I hope he was told to fuck off in the strongest diplomatic terms for talking this shite and for being a stain on the world.

  2. Strange that Russia can do it themselves. According to my information are the US, France and GB also fairly big nuclear powers. And in a better state than theirs. It’s time to remember Russia of that fact. (Probebly they wil hear it under the table from some silent diplomats)

  3. One of the most morally repulsive, delusional, drunk Rissions around and complete laughing stock. Apparently, was once a good guy

  4. Oh and Russia track history of firing nuclear weapons is good……right…oh ecept the last 5 of which 2 Blew up in their silos

  5. The fact nobody is trolling this clown is one of the biggest missed opportunities of the 21st century.

  6. When Russia started the war, they raised the possibility of either victory or defeat. Three years later and they are well and truly on the road to defeat. Now Lavrov is complaining about it. His arrogance, and his country’s arrogance is astounding.

  7. We lured them into aggressively invading a neighboring country and trying to seize territory. Our bad.

  8. No shit dogface (sorry for the insult doggies). Keep crying because you’re not getting what you think you deserve because you have nukes keep sending your meatwaves until theres no coming back for your country to turn around.

  9. First of all they are scaring shit out of people inside russia. This speech will be rolled on and on in all traditional and new media on all levels in all forms. These bastards believe that people have to be freaking out of fear to believe their war is somehow justified

  10. I wish the war would come to him. These people are pretty ballsy when they are not the ones suffering

  11. Again, they can stop this by moving out of Ukraine. So there is no problem or threat for Russia as a state. Just move out. There will be peace. Russia will be safe.

  12. Of course the entire world is trying to defeat Russia because you literally are committing genocide for the multiple time on Ukraine. Difference is, nobody is scared of Russia anymore because people are finally seeing Russia is a paper tiger.
