Moscow, April 16 -- Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Thursday criticised the United States' diplomatic approach, urging Washington to prioritise dialogue over confrontation when dealing with governments it opposes.
Lavrov said the US should "begin by engaging in dialogue" whenever it "dislikes a particular government." He asserted that countries have generally remained open to talks with Washington, adding, "No country has ever refused dialogue with the US."Lavrov further accused the United States of undermining international agreements, claiming that it has repeatedly withdrawn from commitments. "It was the US, however, that first made agreements and then walked away from them," he said.
