Lavrov, and other top Russian officials and diplomats, including Russian President Vladimir Putin himself, have spoken out repeatedly against the current Israeli war on Gaza, and the US’ unconditional support for Tel Aviv.
The Anglo-Saxon forces are pushing the Middle East towards a big war, which is leading to a surge in terrorism and millions-strong refugee flows, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.
“We can see the Anglo-Saxons literally pushing the Middle East to the brink of a big war,” he pointed out, addressing the Znanie (Knowledge) marathon at the International RUSSIA EXPO.
According to Lavrov, the West’s policy is on full display in Ukraine, Iraq, Libya and Syria.
“The outcome of this policy also includes a surge in terrorism and extremism, broken lives, shattered families and millions-strong refugee flows,” the top Russian diplomat added.
Lavrov also noted that the methods that the US and its satellites were using included attempts to sow chaos in various parts of the world, set countries and nations against one another, and raise ethnic and religious tensions.
“The West is used to solving its own problems at the expense of others and exploiting someone else’s resources,” he explained.

Russia and War on Gaza
Lavrov’s comments came within the context of an ongoing Israeli war on Gaza which has killed over 10,000 Palestinian civilians, according to the Palestinian Ministery of Health in the besieged Strip.
Lavrov, and other top Russian officials and diplomats, including Russian President Vladimir Putin himself, have spoken out repeatedly against the current Israeli war on Gaza, and the US’ unconditional support for Tel Aviv.
Israel has, thus far, killed over 10,022 Palestinians in Gaza, including 4,800 children and 2,550 women, and wounded more than 25,000. Palestinian Ministry of Health reports and international organizations say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.

Despite a massive Israeli military buildup around the Gaza borders and sporadic infiltrations on the outskirts of the besieged Strip, Palestinian Resistance continues to repel Israeli attacks.
To justify its military failure, the Israeli army continues to pound civilian homes throughout the Gaza Strip with new massacres reported everywhere in the besieged enclave.
Gaza has been under a tight Israeli military siege since 2007, following a democratic election in occupied Palestine, the results of which were rejected by Tel Aviv and Washington.
