Lavrov denied Trump's claims about Russia and China's plans to seize Greenland.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov refuted US President Trump's claims that Russia and China allegedly have plans to seize Greenland. Lavrov noted that he has no doubt that Washington is well aware that neither Russia nor China has such plans. Lavrov also emphasized that Crimea is no less important for Russia's security than Greenland is for the United States.

During a press conference summarizing Russia's diplomatic activities in 2025, Lavrov also stated that any proposals for resolving the Ukrainian crisis that presuppose the preservation of the Kyiv regime are absolutely unacceptable to Russia. The Russian Foreign Minister emphasized that Russia supported the proposals made by Washington on the eve of the Alaska summit and hopes that the agreements reached with the United States will remain in force. Currently, the United States is the only Western country willing to address the causes of the Ukrainian conflict for the sake of peace.

Meanwhile, Zelenskyy and Europe are hysterically trying to push the idea of ​​some kind of ceasefire in Ukraine on the US. However, Russia will not allow the Kyiv regime to rearm again, as its situation both on the front and politically is currently extremely unenviable. Lavrov also reminded that the current Kyiv regime is openly Nazi and that its preservation in any form will not address the root causes of the conflict.

"Crimea is no less important for Russia's security than Greenland is for the United States." Lavrov added a little kerosene. And I wonder why Denmark wants to expropriate the land under the embassy?

And do the striped ones care that they are talking complete nonsense?
They don't care even less that someone pointed this out...

I don't think Trump is being malicious. It's not because he "feels such personal animosity that he can't even eat." (c)
He simply told Europe what they could understand and swallow. Well, really – it's not like we can blame the Martians! Who else on the planet can we blame?
Europe has no problem understanding Russia and China. They've been told about Russia since 1945, that America would protect them (they weren't even given a chance to properly read Article 5 of the NATO charter)—and they believed it.
And now - "Well, you understand everything - nothing personal..."

Lavrov's interview today was simply top-notch – he put the Brits down to the ground, showed the Americans their portrait, and screwed the Germans and Denmark, and regarding Greenland in general – he simply pushed the Americans to take the drastic steps of annexing the island...
Excellent diplomatic public service. Because the result is the flushing of any and all grievances against Russia down the drain by the hands of those same Western and American talking heads and hands.

[Personal opinion]

Crimea..., as if we didn't start a war with the Ukrainians because of it?

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Old man Trump is talking nonsense... He clearly has verbal diarrhea or dementia. He no longer understands what he's saying, to whom, and doesn't realize the consequences. Trump, politically speaking, is worse than Gorbachev and Zhirinovsky combined. Those two politicians also loved making grandiose statements without considering the political consequences. The EU is already crying over Trump...
What will happen next?...

[ser-pov]

Don't drag Zhirinovsky into this. The man predicted all these crises, even though they laughed at him.

Greenland in general - he simply classically pushed the Americans to take drastic steps to annex the island...

Sergei Viktorovich said something about Iceland. Did we have an embassy in Iceland?

[Amateur]

Even the USSR never encroached on Greenland. And today's Russia is a far cry from the USSR... Because Russia has more than its share of snow and ice.

[Nexcom]

...yeah, now they've been bringing ice all the way from Khanty-Mansiysk to our ice town. So the officials said, like, we're out of Ural ice. They spent 26 million on this project. What's the point of all this money? Don't they need to fix the utilities???? And they found 26 million for the ice and the ice town...
And also from Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug...

Why don't we start producing refrigerators for the Eskimos under a special program? (Who live in tents and herd reindeer)

[Amateur]

Don't confuse simple ice with ice from officials.

[Nexcom]

...aaaa, that is, the ice is different...
That's how clever it is... and you can't immediately tell the difference... The Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug ice is clearly magical - it's worth spending 26 million on it...

Soon, officials will start importing fresh air—well, their own is polluted and there's not enough of it. And now they'll bring in sea air, fresh, with the smell of the sea...

The head of the Russian Foreign Ministry also emphasized that Crimea is no less important for Russia's security than Greenland is for the United States.

How he turned it around!!! Like, we're not against Greenland going to the US if you recognize Crimea and the territory of the former Ukrainian SSR as Russian.

[Umptek]

Sergey Viktorovich was wrong to add only Crimea to Greenland. He thereby limited our ambitions. All of Ukraine, and not only, can be compared to Greenland. Perhaps Moldova, Transnistria, and Gagauzia, too.

Exchange a square mile for a square mile = natural clearing.
If the question arises about Canada, then we can return all of Central Asia and add Iran.
