Foreign Minister of Russia: The US is ready to stage coups and assassinate to obtain resources from other countries

Russian State News Agency, Moscow, March 21 - Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that the US is prepared to stage coups, kidnap, and kill leaders of countries that have resources they need.

Lavrov said on the program "Looking Back at Everything": "The US officials claim 'no one can order them'. They only care about their own well-being. They are willing to use any means to protect this well-being: coups, kidnappings or assassinations of leaders of countries that have natural resources needed by Americans."

He also said: "Venezuela, Iran, our American counterparts do not hide the fact that it's because of oil. They uphold the doctrine of having a dominant position in the world energy market."
