According to the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, calls of Ukrainian politicians to discriminate and ostracize Russians are worrying
MOSCOW, 11 April. /TASS/. The speed with which the wave of Russophobia has spread in Western countries suggests that latent racism has always been present there. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview with the Rossiya-24 TV channel.
"The speed, the instantaneousness with which this Russophobic wave was launched, says that, as one of the American researchers wrote, that latent racism has not gone anywhere from Europe," the minister said.
According to Lavrov, the situation with discrimination against Russians has demonstrated that political correctness and other conventions in the West no longer exist. "And just as Hitler mobilized his society and other European countries against the Jews, in particular, there, by the way, he did not forget about the Slavs either, but now the Russian is the "fas" command," the Russian Foreign Minister added.
The minister also noted that the calls of Ukrainian politicians to discriminate and ostracize Russians cause concern. "And when Ukrainian leaders say that almost their ministers say that a good Russian is a dead Russian, and any other Russian is a bad Russian. Ministers say that Europe should discriminate and ostracize all Russians, because that now there is no time to figure out whether this particular Russian is for Putin or he is against Putin. They just say it in plain text. Therefore, yes, this is a serious thing," Lavrov concluded.
