Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov Praises Trump’s Common-Sense, Blasts Warmongers in Europe as ‘The Crucible of the World’s Tragedies’

While Europe – cheered on by the Democrats and the USAID-media – are throwing a long, collective tantrum in defense of their ‘mini-Churchill’, Kiev leader Volodymyr Zelensky, the real players of our geopolitical world look on in appreciation as the Donald J. Trump’s administration set out vigorously to do exactly what they promised to do: end the war in Ukraine and reengage Russia into a new world of peace and prosperity.

Yesterday (2), Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov took some time to praise U.S. President Donald Trump’s ‘common sense’ aim to end the war, while torching the European ‘powers’ seeking to ‘prolong the conflict’.

Lavrov said that Washington and Moscow would never completely ‘see eye to eye’, but that they had agreed to be pragmatic when interests coincided.

Reuters reported:

“President Vladimir Putin’s foreign minister of 21 years said the model of the U.S.-China relationship was the one that should be built between Russia and the United States to do a lot of ‘mutually beneficial things’ without allowing disagreements to collapse into war.

‘Donald Trump is a pragmatist’, Lavrov told the Russian military newspaper Krasnaya Zvezda, according to a transcript released by the Foreign Ministry. ‘His slogan is common sense. It means, as everyone can see, a shift to a different way of doing things’.

‘But the goal is still MAGA (Make America Great Again’), Lavrov said, referring to Trump’s political slogan. ‘This gives a lively, human character to politics. That’s why it’s interesting to work with him’.”

Trump has warned that the Ukraine war could easily devolve into World War III and revealed that he had spoken to Putin on ‘numerous occasions’..

On Friday, Zelensky went into Oval Office to publicly argue with Trump and Vice President JD Vance, leading the Americans to accusing Zelensky of ‘disrespecting the United States’, while saying to his face that he is losing the war badly, and has ‘no cards left’.

“But Lavrov criticized Europe, saying that for the past 500 years Europe had been the crucible of ‘all the tragedies of the world’ including colonization, wars, crusaders, the Crimean War, Napoleon Bonaparte, World War One and Adolf Hitler. ‘And now, after (former U.S. President Joe) Biden’s term, people have come in who want to be guided by common sense. They say directly that they want to end all wars, they want peace’, Lavrov said. ‘And who demands a ‘continuation of the banquet’ in the form of a war? Europe’.”

Lavrov also repeated a Russian negotiation point: no contingent of ‘European peacekeepers’ is acceptable.

“’Now they also want to prop him up with their bayonets in the form of peacekeeping units. This will mean that the root causes will not disappear’, Lavrov said.”
