Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov recalled that the US "abandoned Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, abandoned the Afghan leadership - the people Washington relied on during the 20-year war in this Central Asian country.
"I hope modern politicians pay attention to history and how relations developed with the United States - a country that wants to impose hegemony over everything" - Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov shared.
Therefore, the Russian diplomat does not rule out the possibility that the crisis in Ukraine could end in a similar way. According to Mr. Lavrov, political scientists discuss this a lot. They predict that the Ukrainian leadership will remain in power as long as the United States needs it.
Earlier, in a statement, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that US arms procurement documents showed that Washington intended to maintain the conflict in Ukraine for at least the next three years. According to Ms. Zakharova, Ukrainian President Zelensky should pay attention to this when assessing the country's future./.
