Ednews reports citing lenta.ru that Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stressed that the countries of the West are "pushing the Middle East to the brink of a big war."
"This line is fully manifested in other regions, including Ukraine. There are many examples, but the result is the same: the loss or weakening of statehood," Lavrov shared in a speech.
The Russian diplomat said that the Western policies are leading to "a surge in terrorism and extremism, broken human destinies, destroyed families [and] multi-million flows of refugees."
