Russia's foreign minister: US can't solve world crises alone
ATHENS - Russia's foreign minister on Wednesday said the next US administration would have to work with Moscow to solve world crises, and argued that the peace process in Syria had been "sabotaged" by other countries involved in talks.
Days before the US presidential election, Sergey Lavrov made the remarks on a visit to Greece, a NATO and European Union member that has maintained close ties with Russia.
"If you remember a few months ago (President Barack) Obama said just that: 'We are the ones who should lay down the rules.' It may have been arrogant but at least he was honest," Lavrov said.
"If this is the way our American partners think, it means we will have to go through a painful period of realization that no one can do anything on their own."
