Where do Russia’s allies stand as Western powers slam Moscow?

Al Jazeera  

While Western countries swiftly united in a chorus of criticism against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Moscow’s allies reacted with milder tones as they find themselves walking a tightrope between security concerns and economic interests. In a short statement, Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid condemned Russia’s move as “a serious violation of the international order”, but also stressed Israel’s “deep, long-lasting and good relations with Russia and with Ukraine”. Turkey Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said Moscow’s military actions amount to a “heavy blow” to regional peace and stability and reiterated Turkey’s “call for a resolution of the problems between Russia and Ukraine”. Myanmar Myanmar’s military government said on Friday that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was “justified” and demonstrated Moscow’s position as a world power. “The US government has been threatening Russia for weeks and manipulating the international community about the dangers of an ‘imminent massive invasion’ of Ukraine,” the Cuban statement said.
