NATO bypass the question of responsibility for the consequences of 20-year-old “experiments” in Afghanistan and seeks to send the flow of Afghan refugees to other Asian countries. With such a statement at the meeting of the heads of the Meeting of the Meeting Meeting on the Interaction and Measures of Confidence in Asia (CICA), the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Sergey Lavrov was made, broadcast available in Youtube.
According to the diplomat, the North Atlantic Alliance after the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan is trying to redirect its strength to other regions, “be it central, South or South-East Asia”. The Russian Foreign Minister accused NATO in the migration crisis on the borders with Afghanistan and stressed that it was the military unit that he was engaged in the direction of refugees to Asia countries.
“We see targeted attempts to” warm up “the situation, rally the existing mechanisms of interstate interaction. The narrow-format structures of the exclusive composition are also made, and military blocks created in the logic of the” Cold War “and containment policies”, – concluded Lavrov.
Earlier, the Foreign Minister spoke about the threat to the use of NATO weapons and equipment left in Afghanistan, in destructive purposes. According to the diplomat, hasty conclusion of troops from the country strongly “launched a ball of Afghan contradictions”, which can lead to the use of arms to harm.
Lavrov previously called the Alliance the main responsible for the post-war recovery of Afghanistan and stressed that the Alliance countries should take the main responsibility for the help of the country.
