Russia won't allow NATO to involve itself in senseless opposition, Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said during the lecture at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mongolia today, TASS reported.

He mentioned that they observe unprecedented accumulation of military activity since the end of the Cold War, presence of NATO on so-called eastern flank of the alliance with the purpose of inserting military and political pressure upon Russia. He also added that all this is followed by aggressive propaganda campaign aimed at Russia’s demonization.

Lavrov emphasized that NATO is occupied with search for the enemy to give meaning to their further existence. Russia does not intend and will not be involved in senseless opposition and is convinced that there is no reasonable alternative to mutually beneficial cooperation in the field of pan-European security based on the principle of the indivisibility of security and in accordance with the international law.
