Lavrov says EU aggression against Russia at Munich conference

Speeches of European leaders at the Munich Security Conference were aggressive, especially with regard to Russia. This was reported by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at talks with Serbian Foreign Minister Marko Djuric on February 17.

"We have been convinced of this once again. Recently at the Munich conference, where the speeches of European leaders were unusually aggressive. First of all with regard to my country," he said.

According to Lavrov, despite the aggressive speeches, there were other opinions, opinions that were more realistic "based on the fundamentally changing balance of forces in the world."

The Munich Security Conference was held from Feb. 14 to 16.
