Lavrov always throws out a unique comment. I enjoyed his “one story” America into a skyscraper comment. Macron is as always an idiot. It doesn’t sound like there are too many takers for sending troops to boost Ukraine.

I think you should have highlighted this comment by Lavrov:

"which will include the supply of long-range weapons so that they reach deep into the territory of the Russian Federation, which in itself is suicidal (if all this is confirmed)."

That sounded to me like a direct threat to France. i.e. sending missiles to Ukraine that they would use to attack inside Russia would be considered by Russia as an act of war by France.

I haven't kept up: have the Russians applied any economic sanctions on western countries in retaliation for the West's sanctions?
