Russian Foreign Minister claims ‘we didn’t invade Ukraine’ – BBC News
Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has claimed Russia “didn’t invade Ukraine” in an exclusive interview with the BBC’s Russia Editor Steve Rosenberg.
In this extended clip, Mr Lavrov said Russia had instead “declared a special military operation” in Ukraine.
While the foreign minister admitted that Russia is “not squeaky clean”, he insisted “we are not ashamed of showing who we are”.
Thousands of civilians have been killed in Ukraine since the invasion began nearly four months ago, with millions forced to flee their homes.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Ukrainians don't have an issue with most Russians, they do have an issue with a self-proclaimed dictator, his proxies in eastern Ukraine and some warlords from Chechnya.

Iam not a fan of Putin, or Lavrov.. I think there should be much more competent, peaceful people in charge of Russia, but they are children with their Ukraine, compared to what USA and NATO did. Listen carefully from 8:25 – the question and the answer. That's the actual truth, which never be spoken on european or american TV. There is no common sense answer to that question. Moment, when USA, NATO and EU should lower their eyes to the ground – Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Serbia (Yugoslavia bombing), Vietnam, Lybia etc. etc. Only dear God know how many civilians died because of USA and NATO actions around the world (I think we got digits close to WW II deaths count)

Lavrov’s comments could not be more far from reality. Those are childish-level quasi explanations. Every sentence is just nothing but a bunch of nonsense and manipulation, very shallow. But what else could you answer when you are perfectly aware that you represent a savage regime and you are the aggressor. What a disgusting person, what a disgusting regime!

In the video it can be see that BBC reporter is trying to present situation by the may how it was presenter to him and he doesn't care to listen or to understand anything else. Russian Federation didn't have other way to solve that situation and they should win as it was on the WW2. Russian Foreign Minister is wise man.
