The speech delivered by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at the UN General Assembly is currently being studied and quoted on every continent, stated Maria Zakharova, the official spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry.
Lavrov spoke during the general debate of the 81st session of the General Assembly on September 26.
"I looked at the reactions and feedback yesterday. It seems to me that this speech is indeed being studied and quoted on all continents right now," Zakharova said on Sputnik radio.
According to her, the speech drew particular attention in Venezuela, where note was taken of a fact highlighted by Lavrov: the forcible abduction of a sovereign country's president under a fabricated pretext. This egregious incident in modern international relations goes unnoticed by the vast majority, yet only one country is voicing it from the UN podium, the diplomat added.
During the High-Level Week in New York, Lavrov held around 50 bilateral meetings, including talks with Indian External Affairs Minister Jaishankar and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Following his address, the Russian Foreign Minister held his customary press conference.
