At a recent meeting of the United Russia Party General Council Commission on International Cooperation, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov condemned the West's aggressive policies, asserting that the European Union (EU) has become virtually indistinguishable from NATO. He criticized the application of unprecedented sanctions, which he claims undermine traditional Western values of free trade and property rights. Lavrov pointed to direct military interventions in regions such as Iran, Palestine, Libya, Syria, and Yemen as evidence of this aggression. He expressed concern that NATO's expansion into the Far East under the pretext of containing China further exemplifies the alliance's overreach. Additionally, Lavrov noted that the EU, initially formed as an economic bloc, has evolved into a military counterpart to NATO, with discussions emerging about creating a new military bloc in Europe due to decreasing American commitments. He emphasized the need for dialogue to address the multiple crises affecting Eurasia and announced the completion of the Eurasian Charter on Diversity and Multipolarity, which aims to foster stable relations across the continent.
