TERMEZ /Uzbekistan/, March 30. /TASS/. The Western minority is attempting to oppose the fair nature of international relations, to dictate to other countries "how they should behave," and the aggression of the United States and Israel against Iran has become a manifestation of this policy, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin told reporters.
"We see that today, in the world as a whole and in our common home with our Uzbekistani friends in Eurasia, there is, of course, progress, on the one hand, the advancement of the trend toward a multipolar world, toward a more just and democratic world order. But, on the other hand, the Western minority is trying to resist this trend for cultural and civilizational diversity, for a fair nature of international relations that is promoted by independent states who want to choose their own path of development," the deputy minister stated on the sidelines of the Russian-Uzbek Conference of the Valdai International Discussion Club and the Institute for Strategic and Regional Studies under the President of Uzbekistan.
As Galuzin pointed out, the Western minority is attempting to counter the global majority in an attempt to regain its "once dominant positions in the world." "And all of this manifests itself in attempts to dictate to independent states how they should behave and what policies they should pursue. And the unprovoked US and Israel armed aggression against Iran that we are witnessing today is precisely a manifestation of this reckless, aggressive policy of the Western minority," the Russian official emphasized.
