The entire audience burst out laughing after a Russian diplomat brazenly claimed, with a straight face, that Russia is the victim in the Ukraine war.
The incident happened as Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, spoke in broken English at an international event in India.
In Mr. Lavrov’s opinion, the West and Ukraine are the ‘aggressors’ and Russia was trying to ‘stop the war.’
Such bare-faced lies drew instant laughter and derision from the entire audience, leaving the diplomat deeply embarrassed and red-faced.
