Lavrov: No Big Difference If Sweden, Finland Join NATO

RUSSIA

Speaking at the 'New Horizons Educational Marathon' Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stating that there would be 'no big difference' if Sweden and Finland join NATO as both had 'long participated in NATO military drills'. Language much softer than that used by other Russian gov't officials.

  • Lavrov also stated that NATO did not respect its 'promises' not to enlarge further, stating that "NATO wants a unipolar world. They promised Russia they won't enlarge, even in 2009, and that they won't threaten us, but they tricked us....No country can strengthen its security on the backs of others...The Atlantic organization cannot claim to have dominance over security,"
  • In comments that are likely to cause some consternation in Paris, Lavrov states "French president Macron is the only European leader who has a balanced view of the situation and proposes constructive solutions for the 'situation in Ukraine'." Many Russia hawks in the West have raised concerns about Macron's continued dialogue with Putin.
