TASS: Growing number of nations banking on military might to guarantee sovereignty, says Lavrov
Russia’s top diplomat noted all this is happening due to the fact that the United States and its allies "still want to handle matters solely on the basis of dictating and putting forward ultimatums"
MOSCOW, January 15. /TASS/. An increasing amount of countries are wagering on boosting their military power to ensure their sovereignty as a result of the decline in the system of international law, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told reporters at an annual news conference on Monday.
"We are witnessing a devaluation of international law, and the diminishing role of multilateral institutions. We are also seeing more and more countries banking on boosting their military power, which is seen by them as almost the sole guarantee of preserving their sovereignty under current conditions," he said.

Russia is an aggressor.
Lavrov is right, people ( mostly american) have selective memories , all this mess started with the Iraq invasion , when the US against UN and majority of the world and backed by unsubstantiated claim invaded Iraq , people remember bush and Putin and the worm relationship Russia and US have at the time , which changed 180 degree after that , all around the world countries started gearing up . Very simple if the most powerful country in the world could if wished to ignore international law ( which itself have build ) and do what it want , don't expect other countries to wait.
