UN General Assembly
2024

Dear colleagues, if we could reach peace, it would not only save lives of the people, but would give a big support, a big help to many countries in the Transatlantic community where I'm coming from to get rid of the huge burden of hypocrisy, and I'll tell you why. Many Western, uh, colleagues of ours like to say that they got rid of the energy sources of Russia, for example. This is one of the biggest fake news ever, because the Western countries continued to do business with Russia just like others. They just simply deny it. If you look at the share of Russian gas in the LNG ports in western part of Europe, you might be surprised. Or if you have a look at the, uh, oil arriving to the Western countries in Europe, where it comes from originally, you might be surprised as well. And if you look at who is the number one uranium supplier of this very country, United States, you would be surprised as well.
