Our Patience Is Not Endless: Lavrov

We have the capability to defend our national interests and will use all our strength if necessary, declared Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

“Of course, we have all the possibilities to defend our national interests, and we will maximize their use if necessary. Those who speak the language of sanctions with Russia should remember that we remain quite restrained in responding to economic aggression. Our patience is not endless,” Lavrov said in an interview with the Argumenty i Fakty newspaper.

According to him, “it has not been and will not be possible to tear apart the Russian economy as Barack Obama wished.”
