Russian minister: U.S.-Russia ties worse than during Cold War

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow stands ready to normalize ties with Washington but that the U.S. should stop posturing like a "sovereign" while rallying its allies against Russia and China.

"During the Cold War, the tensions were flying high, and risky crisis situations often emerged, but there was also a mutual respect," Lavrov said in a Russian state television interview. "It seems to me there is a deficit of it now." The U.S. ordered 10 Russian diplomats expelled, targeted dozens of companies and people and imposed new curbs on Russia's ability to borrow money. While ordering the sanctions, U.S. President Joe Biden also called for de-escalating tensions and held the door open for co-operation with Russia in certain areas.

As part of the restrictions, Russia moved to ban the U.S. Embassy and its consulates from hiring Russian citizens and third country nationals. Similar bans would also be applied to other nations designated as "unfriendly."

Ok Biden, you are steering the world in a dangerous direction.

Everyone in here squawking about podunk Russia (the target of invasion since FOREVER, GDP Italy) needs to read some Russian HISTORY to understand why they are just a *tad paranoid & like to whine & to start little fires everywhere else as distractions. And then calm TF down. 🙄

Lol, election interference, fake news narratives to stoke unrest, jails or tries to murder political opponents, chemical attack on foreign soil is there any wonder?

No surprise, the U.S. has threatened Russia, insulted the Russian President, tried to send military forces into the Black Sea and is actively using states like the Ukraine as military proxy states to destabilize Russia. And add to that the Russophobia promoted by U.S. media.

And who’s fault is that I wonder

America wants to start WW3!

Does The good minister explait that it is because 'Russia invaded its neighbour, and heir Putin is killing off all his rivals, even if they are in another country'? DeplorableSovietRussians
