[The Peninsula] Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the United States on Monday of plunging the Middle East into chaos and fueling the rise of bully boyz because of its drive to dominate the world.Lavrov leveled the fierce criticism of Washington's policies at a special UN Security Council debate on maintaining international peace and security.
The foreign minister cited the US-led air strikes in Syria, the 2003 invasion of Iraq and the 2011 military intervention in Libya as examples of "violations of the fundamental principles of the United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
."
"All of this is the result of attempts to dominate global affairs, to rule over all, everywhere, to use military force unilaterally to push one's interests," Lavrov told the 15-member council.
"These have plunged the Middle East and North Africa into instability and chaos, and to a large extent have created a breeding ground in which bully boyz thrive," he said.
