Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in a comment on the new US administration’s calls to deal with suspicion with the Russian “Sputnik V” vaccine, that his country does not establish a friendly relationship against anyone at all.
“By the way, representatives of the new American administration recently called for suspicious dealing with the Russian Sputnik V vaccine, because they say again, this is a geopolitical plan for the Kremlin, and it is necessary to be more careful, so that it does not depend on the Union,” Lavrov said at the end of talks with the Togolese foreign minister. Well, what can I say … there is nothing against normal friendly communication between countries and if the only thing that can be said in this regard is this kind of statement, that is sad. ”
The head of the Russian diplomacy continued, saying, “We never befriend any party. We always proceed with the view that if Russia and its foreign partners have mutual attraction, then we have every right to develop our relations according to what we agree upon.”
