Lavrov Warns US Is Trying to Seize Global Energy Routes as Russia Vows India Will Be Unaffected

Lavrov claims the US wants to seize all energy routes

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told RT India that India’s interests in Russian energy supplies will not be affected, even as he accused the United States of “unfair competition.” Ahead of a visit for the BRICS Foreign Ministers’ Meeting, Lavrov alleged Washington seeks to dominate and “seize all energy routes” globally, pressuring countries that maintain ties with Russia. He also criticized Europe for dropping Russian contracts, arguing bans are politically driven and will force higher-cost imports of US LNG.
