The West will never be able to achieve Russia’s isolation in the global world, Russian Permanent Representative to the OSCE Alexander Lukashevich is sure. According to him, this is evidenced by objective reality, RIA Novosti reports. Moscow has never shied away from a dialogue that would be based on taking into account the interests of both sides, the diplomat recalled, but we don’t need a ''one-goal game,'' much less a give-away game.
Russia will continue to defend its interests using all available means. Among them are those guaranteed by one of the articles of the UN Charter on the right to individual and collective self-defense, Alexander Lukashevich stressed.
No one should doubt that Moscow has all the resources and capabilities necessary for this, the permanent representative added.
He also spoke about the dirty tricks that the West uses against Russian diplomats at the OSCE site. The dirtiest methods are used, Russia is demonized and dehumanized, spy mania is fanned out of nowhere, and Moscow is accused of allegedly blocking the activities of the OSCE. There are insults and threats against Russian diplomats, Lukashevich noted. And sweeping accusations of espionage against Russians working in the OSCE are nothing more than a method of unfair competition for places in its body.
