On Monday, Russia's foreign minister put a new spin on his country's reasoning for invading Ukraine by claiming the "special military action" is meant to put an end to the United States' quest for "world domination" and the expansion of NATO.
Speaking to the Russian state-owned television news channel Rossiya 24, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the U.S. and other Western nations of violating international law and attempting to impose a "rules-based" global order.
"Our special military operation is meant to put an end to the unabashed expansion [of NATO] and the unabashed drive towards full domination by the U.S. and its Western subjects on the world stage," Lavrov told Rossiya 24, according to a translation from Russian state-run media outlet RT.
"This domination is built on gross violations of international law and under some rules, which they are now hyping so much and which they make up on a case-by-case basis," Lavrov added.
Russia has repeatedly attempted to justify its invasion of Ukraine, and has refused to call its military actions a war. When Russian President Vladimir Putin first ordered troops to attack Ukraine on February 24, he said he said he was seeking the "denazification" of Ukraine. Putin has baselessly claimed that the administration of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky—a democratically elected Jewish leader—is overrun by "Nazis" who have promoted "genocide."
Last month, Lavrov also defended the war by saying that Russia is working to prevent a separate conflict in Ukraine.
"The goal of Russia's special military operation is to stop any war that could take place on Ukrainian territory or that could start from there," Lavrov said, according to a tweet posted by the Russian embassy in London.

The DC deep state are the new (neo) Marxists: They have a view of human’s purpose, to establish a secular, gay, multi-culti, centrally-planned one-world government across the globe - and they will lead it.
Dont think anyone here can support this as a logical reason for russia invading ukraine.
Especially because its a completely different reason than the multiple prior reasons of dealing with the homosexuals, dealing with the nazis, dealing with how ukraine deals with internal issues...
Quest for world domination?
Oh I get it. You suck communist a$$, so you need a diversion to Unite your crappy country.
How’s Ukraine treating you?
He sure talks a big game. In the real world, they still haven’t even taken Mariupol. Oe Odessa. Or Kharkiv. Let alone Kiev.
Actually. NO.
Ronald Reagan had a personal friendship with Gorbachev and Sheverdnadze. It led to arms control agreements, the stand-down of the Red-Army in E.Europe, and ultimately, the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Reagan believed in a christian, moral America and that simple vision changed the world. What vision do the likes of Hillary Clinton, Mitt Romney, Joe Biden and Antony Blinken have?
Many Freepers agree with him.

It is ironic China and Russia is our last hope in stopping the “ New World Order”. If you haven’t noticed, they are not buying into the west’s Green New Deal, the Great Reset, cashless society, all electric autos, gay marriage, LGBQ movement, guaranteed income, open borders, illegal alien surges, BLM, and more.
Wake up America, you are being deceived.
I believe China is pushing hard into electric autos.
And building many new coal fired power plants to generate juice for them.
Saving the high value liquid petroleum for the military.
That’s not the original reason(s) given.
Maybe the Russians could do the world a favor and whack Soros, Schwab, and their spawn?

The American sheeple are lead by MSM, a corrupted Biden agenda and their “ emotions “.
Next up, demonizing China, Russia and China stand in the way of the Globalists.
Wow, they’re just getting more brazen.
Russia has repeatedly attempted to justify its invasion of Ukraine, and has refused to call its military actions a war.
***Then we can go in and fight them back as long as we don’t call it a war, saying that we are “respecting the borders and sovereignty of Ukraine” as per the Budapest Agreement.
To hell with Russia. They’ve proven themselves to be the parasitic country that Reagan always said they were.
We need to send Dr. Oz to Russia to lecture Putin on the joys of transgenderism. He needs to get on the globohomo train or get run over.
Too funny.
I do.
“During this speech, Washington explained that IF the USA were to survive, it would be due to an international policy of “extending our commercial relations, to have with them [foreign nations] as little political connection as possible.”
Some have slandered Washington’s call for reduced political enmeshment with other nations as isolationist, but he always promoted international commerce driven by mutual benefit. It was merely imperial operations, intrigue, deceit and the new age of color revolutions starting with the Jacobin Terror during Washington’s presidency which the great leader saw as an poisonous mess that would destroy the young republic if it became enmired in foreign escapades.”
we can’t even govern any of our large cities. We can’t “dominate” anyone.
Considering how we treated defeated nations in 1945 compared to how Russia did, including every nation the Red Army traversed, there’s a lot of evidence that it was the other way around.
That he did. But KGB as an organization was never a friend of the US. It regarded America as their number one enemy regardless of who the Gen Sec of the communist party happened to be. And Putin hated America then as he does now which comes out in his various interviews.
"Our special military operation--->war is meant to put an end to the unabashed expansion of NATO and the unabashed drive towards full domination by the U.S. and its Western subjects on the world stage... This domination is built on gross violations of international law and under some rules, which they are now hyping so much and which they make up on a case-by-case basis"
***I wonder what those rules and international laws would be? Maybe some Putin Puffer can help us out on this.
Pakistan leader Khan was just booted with a military coup we facilitated because he said no to our request for air bases in Pakistan.
We have a long history of regime change and over 800 bases around the world. Syria has repeatedly asked us to leave but we keep putting up more bases instead. Who is the imperialist again? Everyone but Trump.
Yes. Good post!
“How dare Russia claim the US is trying to dominate the world!”
also,
“We really need to do another regime change, this time in Russia!”
