Russia hates even to think about war with the US - Lavrov It was the US who rejected Russia’s December 2021 draft security proposals concerning Ukraine’s NATO membership and the Western military bloc’s expansion, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told American journalist Tucker Carlson. “We hate even to think about war with the United States, which will take on a nuclear character,“ Lavrov said. “Our military doctrine says that the most important thing is to avoid a nuclear war. And it was us, by the way, who initiated in January 2022... the joint statement by the leaders of the five permanent members of the [UN] Security Council saying that we will do anything to avoid confrontation between us.“ Source: Global News (EU, USA)
