Lavrov: The West has declared a 'total hybrid war' against Russia



Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says the West has declared a "total hybrid war" against Russia and added that everyone will feel the consequences, without exception.



The only exceptions that lying barbarian autocratic regime is deluding itself are themselves, personally...

Abject word salad.

without any sense of irony, he represents the country that provided weapons and personnel to North Korea and Vietnam during the Korean and Vietnam wars and was recently discovered to be paying bounties to Taliban soldiers who killed Americans in Afghanistan.

2. Russia's time is past. They could have co-existed peacefully, productively, and built themselves up.

Instead, they decided to export terrorism, misinformation, gangster operations, corruption, and invaded their peaceful neighbors.

The West does not want war with Russia. Russia wants war with the West. A war they cannot win. Only destruction will result.

Fools.

6. It needn't be, if they'd get rid of mobsters like Putin and liars like Lavrov

Lavrov is falling all over himself. You can smell the flop sweat--he's lying and he knows he's lying.

Otherwise, it sounds like a typical speech from TFG or Palin or any of the other far right bafflegabbers who spout word salad sprinkled with catch phrases and buzzwords so morons will think they're being agreed with.

Russia is awash in fabulous natural resources, many yet to be discovered since Brezhnev only built the northern line of the Trans Siberian railway in the 70s and 80s and opened up that part of the country to exploration. Most of the wealth Putin and his fellow mobsters have looted has come from that part of the country. Had it been used to keep building up the country, Russia would be a world class player.
