Sergey Lavrov used the United Nations podium in New York to launch a sweeping attack on the United States, Europe, NATO, and Ukraine—while defending Russia’s war as being fully consistent with the UN Charter.

In this episode, I break down Lavrov’s speech in context: his accusations against the United States over Venezuela and Iran, his claims that the West is destabilizing the world, his attack on Germany and Europe, and his extraordinary allegations about Ukraine, Nazism, language rights, and Western military support.

Most importantly, we examine Russia’s central justification for its invasion of Ukraine and Lavrov’s insistence that Moscow will continue its fight “regardless of any circumstances.” I also explain why his final argument about one country’s security coming at the expense of another cuts directly into Russia’s own justification for creating security and buffer zones inside Ukraine.
