During a recent press conference, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the United States of pursuing policies aimed at eliminating global competitors, specifically targeting Russia and China. Lavrov emphasized that the methods employed by the U.S. to achieve this goal are 'crystal clear.' He also revealed that France has approached Russia multiple times through unofficial channels, suggesting a dialogue regarding Ukraine that would exclude the Ukrainian government. Lavrov stated that the U.S. should take the initiative to restore contacts with Russia, which he claims has been severed by American policies.
