Why NATO issues statement on Ukraine? – Lavrov
Moscow is surprised by NATO’s statement against the use of force in dispersing demonstrations in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
He also urged outsiders not to interfere in the Ukranian domestic policy. During the meeting with NATO Secretary General, Sergei Lavrov also spoke about Iran’s nuclear issue and situation in Trascaucasia region.
“I don’t know why NATO should issue such statements, and I don’t know why NATO Secretary General Mr. Fogh Rasmussen should answer the question as to whether Russia could send troops to Ukraine – I don’t know why such questions should be asked. And, in my view, this produces a distorted picture, and such signals may cause an absolutely incorrect understanding of what is going on in some distorted and inflamed minds,” Lavrov said at a press conference following a Russia-NATO Council session in Brussels on Wednesday.
“We presume that this is Ukraine’s internal affair,” he said.
