Ambassador of Russia to the United Kingdom Andrei Kelin poses inside the residence of the Russian Ambassador, following an interview with Reuters, in London, Britain, May 20, 2021. REUTERS/Henry NichollsLONDON: The Group of Seven is playing a"dangerous game" by making aggressive and baseless criticism of the Kremlin because it pushes Russia closer to China, Russia's ambassador to London Andrei Kelin told Reuters on Thursday .

"This is a dangerous game," Kelin, 64, told Reuters."Russia and China have enormous potential in different fields - in the economy, in technology, in military capacities, in politics - this potential is spread around the world." G7 leaders gather for a summit in St Ives, in the southern English region of Cornwall, on June 11-13. How to deal with President Vladimir Putin's Russia is expected to be on the agenda.

"Look at yourself in this situation - but they don't want to look at themselves," Kelin said."No one gives them the right to judge others - especially on the state of democracy."
