Sergey Lavrov questions focus on Ukraine conflict in G-20 grouping

Deccan Chronicle  

NEW DELHI: Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov on Friday questioned the focus on the Ukraine conflict in the G-20 grouping, including the foreign ministers’ meeting that was held on Thursday, and asked why the group had never discussed the situation in previous years in countries like Iraq, Syria and Libya, especially on occasions such as when the United States attacked Iraq in 2003. Mr Lavrov accused Western delegates at the G-20 session of “shouting” at Russia at the meeting on Thursday and said the policy that nothing except Ukraine was of consequence to the G-20 “will fail”. The Russian minister also criticized the efforts in the Indo-Pacific region towards “trying to militarise” the four-nation Quad and accused the United States of plotting an “Asean plus Quad” scenario so that Russia and China are excluded from the East Asia Summit. Slamming the West during a session “in conversation” with think tank Observer Research Foundation chairman Sunjoy Joshi, the Russian foreign minister noted how the West had attacked Serbia, Iraq, Libya, Syria and other nations and was now lecturing Russia.
