If Russia’s invasion of Ukraine wasn’t the violent, genocidal nightmare that it is, it would be hilarious. We’re watching one of the world’s alleged superpowers completely fail against a much smaller, non-nuclear nation.
And, what makes the whole thing all the more ludicrous are the insane excuses that the Kremlin keeps trying to employ for the madness.
The latest attempt to justify the invasion almost got the Russian Foreign Minister laughed off stage.
Ever since Russia’s invasion in Ukraine, it has become rare for major international conferences to invite Russian officials. So, when an Indian think tank welcomed Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to speak, it made for some awkward exchanges.
This week, India’s Observer Research Foundation gathered academics, business executives and diplomats from the G-20, or Group of 20 economies, for a conference in Delhi known as the Raisina Dialogue.
It didn’t take long for things to get off the rails.
In one exchange, Lavrov received loud applause for accusing the West of having a double standard, noting its heavy criticism of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine despite Western powers having invaded Iraq and Afghanistan. In another, the reaction was less positive.
“The war, which we are trying to stop, which was launched against us using Ukrainian people,” he said.
Before Lavrov could finish his sentence, the audience laughed and groaned — loud enough for the foreign minister to pause and stumble on his words.
Russia’s belligerent approach to explaining themselves has been a surefire indication of their loss of status within the global community as well, leading the Kremlin down ever more desperate paths.
