Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who gave an interview Monday night, Sept.1, to the well-watched Russian TV program “Moscow.Kremlin.Putin” after the conclusion of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summits (SCO and SCO Plus), was asked for his view of how everything had turned out. He was speaking to a Russian audience, but it is the citizens of Western nations being told by their governments and media that “the disruptors” of the world were plotting against them, who most need to hear his summary of what actually took place: a discussion of what Western nations need to do!
“A substantive discussion took place, which clearly demonstrated through the lens of various initiatives that the movement is directed toward the formation of a multipolar world. Western countries are attempting to obstruct this process. In order to preserve their dominance, they resort not to dialogue or fair competition, but to direct blackmail, pressure, and sanctions. We are witnessing the abuse of the dollar’s role in global affairs and the United States waging tariff wars against virtually everyone else.
