The conducted geopolitical engineering destroyed the institutional basis of the states and the mechanisms guaranteeing regional security, said Lavrov speaking at the opening of the Global Forum University of the BRICS, at the Moscow Institute of International Relations on Tuesday.
The overthrow of "uncomfortable" regimes -stressed the minister- led to chaos, anarchy, destruction of states and the occupation of these territories by terrorists.
Lavrov said that in the face of a turbulent global situation, only collective action will contribute to solving complex global problems. The international actors must agree and find compromises in world affairs, with a view to a stable and lasting system of relations in all spheres, emphasized the Russian foreign minister.
The head of Russian diplomacy stressed the need to abandon the practice of seeking unilateral advantages to the detriment of others, and progress in collective decisions for a progress in solving the complex problems of the contemporary world, he said.
Lavrov contrasted the current delicate situation and the disagreements in the fight against terrorism in Syria, with the capability of interaction of the BRICS group (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), coincidence of interests, and the prevailing dialogue of respect.
We are prepared, he said, to get out into the international arena with the quintet's common positions in many global issues, such as combating terrorism, drug trafficking, transnational organized crime and corruption.
He also stressed the efforts and contribution of BRICS in strengthening the central role of the UN, the resolution of conflicts through peaceful means, and strengthening international security.
The forum, according to Lavrov, rejects all attempts to solve the problems from positions of strength, including the policy of unilateral sanctions, pressures and outside interference, in a defense of the fundamental principles of international law.
