Russian response to US

A comment made yesterday by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in response to the US effort in getting Russia to disassociate itself from the Syrian president.

“We’ve already gone through such experiments based on the need to overthrow some dictator or authoritarian leader.

"I don’t know of any positive examples of removing.

Leaving aside personalities, It is understandable why Russia is so nervous of US behaviour.

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union the West cannot be proud of how it has dealt with Russia.
