Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov Says West United Against Russia as Ukraine Warns of Russian Propaganda Campaign
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters that the entire Western bloc has united against Russia, accusing Western governments of trying to "dismember" the country and of using the war in Ukraine to weaken Moscow. He singled out the Baltic states as the main "focal points" of this opposition and urged Russia not to become angry but to develop a "healthy fury" in its foreign policy.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Svybyha warned that Russia is running an intensive propaganda campaign across Europe that exploits images from the migrant crisis in Ceuta. Analysts identified more than 1,500 articles in a pro‑Russian network, including about 300 Spanish‑language pieces from Pravda and over 25 stories per language edition from RT. Svybyha called for a complete ban on Russian propaganda resources in European countries to protect public security.
