Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov delivered a speech at the UN General Assembly on Saturday. During this time he fiercely attacked the western countries. Lavrov said: “America, Britain and many other countries are currently waging a direct war against Russia.” We can call it hybrid war, but that’s not true. Western countries are at enmity with us, using Ukraine as a pawn.
Lavrov said: “America and other groups collaborating with it are continually promoting war.” They are trying to rule the entire world on the basis of rules made for their benefit. He also accused Western countries of fraud. Lavrov also described Western countries as a kingdom of lies.
Ukrainian President Zelensky speaks to member countries on the subject of war at the UN General Assembly. He presented his peace plan to the UN Security Council.

There is no question that Ukraine will not join NATO under the peace agreement.
After his speech to the UN General Assembly, the Russian Foreign Minister also addressed the media. During this time he rejected Ukraine’s peace plan. Lavrov said: “This proposal cannot be implemented.” This is not possible. This contradicts Moscow’s two main points. There is no talk of handing over Ukrainian territory to Russia or Ukraine joining NATO.
In addition, Sergey Lavrov also rejected Russia’s proposal to return to the Black Sea Grain Agreement. He said: “The main reason for our withdrawal from this agreement is that all the promises made to us were a deception.” Western countries promised to lift sanctions on the Russian bank, but this did not happen.
Food crisis in many countries due to western countries
The Russian Foreign Minister also blamed the West for the crisis on the food and energy markets. He said they were imposing unilateral sanctions on weaker countries. Earlier, Ukraine stated in its speech that this war is not only for Ukraine, but for the whole world.
Zelensky said: “Russia is a terrorist and makes weapons for children.”
To achieve this, all countries must fight together against Russia. Russia is driving the whole world towards the final war. We are doing our best to ensure that after this war with Russia, no country in the world can attack anyone.
Zelensky had said: “After the Cold War, it was Russia, not Ukraine, that had to withdraw its nuclear weapons.” Terrorists like him should have no right to have nuclear weapons. Russia has used food, energy and even children as weapons in its war against Ukraine. The Ukrainian president said: “When hatred against a nation is used as a weapon, it never ends.”
What was the Black Sea Grain Deal?
- In terms of food supply, Ukraine is one of the top countries in the world. Its grain ships transiting the Black Sea were at risk of Russian attacks. Therefore, he stopped the supply, which weakened the chain and the supply. In many European and African countries, people were at risk of dying of hunger.
- Thanks to the efforts of Turkey and the United Nations, an agreement was reached in July last year. It stipulated that both Russia and Ukraine would not attack each other’s cargo ships.
- In addition, UN officials will inspect each ship to ensure that it is not used to carry weapons. This treaty expired on July 17 and Russia refused to renew it. This means that it can now also attack ships carrying grain.
