According to Lavrov, the US is not at all based on international law, but only proves its leadership through such "confrontational concepts and strategies".

Earlier it was reported that in the new National Defense Strategy presented by the Pentagon today, the Russian Federation and China have been named the main opponents of the United States. The strategy is aimed at preventing the aggression of China and Russia from harming US interests.

As previously reported in URA-Inform, the basis of the new National Defense Strategy of the United States was the opposition of Russia and China. As noted, the previous one and a half decades, American priorities were focused on the fight against Islamist militants, and now they have finally shifted.
