and it was. during the general assembly of the united nations, i also met with the then foreign minister of france, mr. bladrian. hey, he had a conversation with me on the same topic. uh, the high representative of the european union, mr. barel. nitsa and both of them, well, i still retain some

decorum, but they were interested enough. i have uh. why are we in africa making some initiatives, taking some actions . well, i uh answered. naturally , we are uh interested in developing relationships with everyone who shows a counter interest, uh, and uh, we have uh no barriers to doing this with all countries on any continent russia

needs to learn that africa is an area of ​​special interest for the european union. and at the same time, at some time before that, uh, where officials of the european union declared that the balkans are a zone of interests of the european union and since the european union works there, no one else needs to come there at the same time. , and in the statements, the european union considered it absolutely normal for itself to work directly on the borders of the russian federation in countries that are united with us and the commonwealth of an independent state

of the organization of the collective security treaty, the eurasian economic union. they had no doubts that they were able to develop their own special strategies. not just relations to develop witticisms and develop for central asia , uh, there was no doubt that they uh have the right to work in ukraine, the same at the time when they were maturing in ukraine in conscious anti-russian tendencies and destroyed all russian sex. by the way

, they are working on this vast eurasian space according to my information. eh, a few quite numerous. uh, french private military companies are considered par for the course when the sovereign states of the african continent are disappointed. in the one in the name of france and uh would like to find other partners to solve their urgent problems, including in the security sphere , here is the reaction. eh, like the one you mentioned. in connection with the statement

macron, that we are undermining french interests from the central african republic, the very mentality that the european union applies to any part of the globe, and in particular , this mentality was declared in relation to ukraine back in the early 2000s.

when the european union said directly, ukraine should choose either with europe or with russia, even the vicious logic applies to the african continent. how can you see on the facts? when france actively participated in leading roles in the aggression against libya and contributed to the destruction of the state.

we warned that this would end very badly for the africans. uh, as a result, in the absence of a lyrical state , in the absence of any state state apparatus, libya turned into a black hole millions poured into europe through libya, and illegal migrants, and in the opposite direction, streams went into the sahara sahel region through libya, which turned into a black hole smuggled weapons of terrorists of all stripes, including e, the

state began to suffer from them. terrorists, who headed to moths and other sugar countries in the region. eh, there were a lot of bands. and which france supported to overthrow?

contacted. uh, to us, to other members of the security council, with a request to adopt a resolution in support of the french contingent barkhan, he was called, in my opinion, being in a moth and to provide this contingent with an additional mandate to counter the very terrorists that the french supported in libya, and uh, thereby actually provoked. this is this spiral of terrorist terrorist violence, which are still, but observed in africa. and

then we supported the french with this security, because we consider it really true to counteract terrorism, but we are not to blame for the fact that, in the end, the french, uh, military personnel in moths did not justify. and the expectations that the leadership of this country placed on them. mech

to your question, because here the details are important, in which the devil is known to be, uh, and oh, which uh, many simply do not know, because western propaganda works with slogans russia the aggressor russia undermines interests of the european union in africa well, and similar unfounded statements that are circulated hundreds of thousands of times in the hope of influencing my listeners and viewers.

thank you. thank you very much zolotnitsky anton mitz-known question to sergey viktorovich lavrov. today we certainly hear and talk a lot about the growing role of such an association as brix e, now there is already a statement that it will be replenished with 13 new members. er, could you describe. what role do you see globally for this association in the future and uh, is it possible we should expect replenishment and some new

african members, maybe you and your latin colleagues also discussed if they have such an interest, well, maybe in the long term later, please. and what about the global role of the global, if you want, uh, the prospect of unification of the briks, uh, the leaders of the five have repeatedly spoken out , including yesterday in the pretoria at a press conference, uh, our south african colleague spoke about this in detail. uh, brix is ​​the amalgamation of the new. type in the sense

that it doesn't build on the principle, uh, leading or at home, it is not a structure where a command is given and everyone is taken under the trump card, as we are now seeing, but it should be. normally brix works on the basis of the principle of consensus,

but this principle is different from the consensus that is used in nato and the european union cries if one of the members. brixen 's proposal does not accept this proposal and efforts continue to find acceptable mutually beneficial solutions to the war. and the european union, in particular, over the past year, in relation to the situation around ukraine, in relation to this perfect sounded

voices that were knocked out of the general chorus, but in these cases and in the european union, c was used to finish off these disparate objections and force them to join the position that they consider the correct senior, comrades. well , of course. we have never, within the framework of brix , put forward ideas like the one that sounded at the last lieutenant himself

that she should have global responsibility for security issues. including responsibility for security in indonesia, these ocean regions and in general everywhere on the planet. uh, such modest ambitions are not enough, and brix, uh, never found the spaniards to unite legitimate natural interests a strange part. we are within. brescherba serious damage caused to the world

economy by the process of globalization by the global financial policy of the west is an object from the outside world, on the contrary, we want to cooperate as much as possible with all countries who are ready to do this on an equal basis based on a balance of interests. for the sake of the development of our economies, we are simply obliged to coordinate e-e ways, uh, protecting our interests, uh, the dominance of those mechanisms that were

created by the west as part of its globalization model, which now, as you can see, it uses in the most rude way, first of all, i mean, of course, the role of the dollar. the share of national currencies in settlements between brix countries is already actively growing. yes, and in our settlements with many other countries, and already strange brix e, initiatives are being announced about the need to work on creating our own currency. international the is growing

it's and the reason is very simple one cannot rely on the mechanisms that are in the hands of those who can so to put it mildly, deceive at any moment who can refuse their obligations. just for the sake of achieving some momentary political goal, whether in foreign policy or whether it is inside political processes. and

of course, such an approach to world affairs, which the members of the brix demonstrate, evoke sympathy from more and more countries on all continents and in asia and in africa and latin america, e.g. in june last year, when it took place online, uh, the brix plus 13 countries took part in it. all of them, to one degree or another, are interested in rapprochement with our five. yesterday

in pretoria, the president of trammophosis told me that south africa, as the chair of the brix, this year also plans to invite, uh, a certain number of countries to the coming august in durban themselves. holding a number of countries that cooperate with briks e have expressed their desire to somehow formalize these relations and now our experts on this topic prepare proposals for ministers, and then we will report to the heads of state, just when they get together in a bad way, and then in what forms, and with which specific countries is it optimal

to develop, uh, deeper relations? thanks tanks. clapped. by the way, i noticed psychics. and you understood.

west me messages that yes

and tried not to date me. it seems to me that this unprecedented has no precedent where the practice of payment. and if you stand for democratic principles,

after each african strange arab countries are already adults. the hosts you are still before america them in a certain way, since you liked the partners who are

guided by such situations.

obedience is the president that we see today is another manifestation of colonialism and everything will change our western friends to make them polite so that they can behave in a democratic way of domination.

that they must develop as the way becomes
