Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov addresses the 78th Session of the U.N. General Assembly in New York City, U.S., September 23, 2023. Lavrov added that Moscow left the Black Sea grain initiative because promises made to Russia - including on removing sanctions on a Russian bank and reconnecting it to the global SWIFT system - had not been met. Asked if Russia would send more peace-keepers to Nagorno-Karabakh, a separatist Armenian enclave inside Azerbaijan, Lavrov said that would be decided on the ground. Lavrov accused the West of a neo-colonial mindset in its overtures to the Global South to win backing for Ukraine in the war. Instead, Lavrov spoke of a "global majority" that was being duped by the West, which he described as an "empire of lies".
