Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov openly confronted UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres over the conspicuous absence of the Russian flag at a podium during a high-level event, demanding an explanation. According to Lavrov, protocol allows the flag only for heads of state, yet he emphasized the repeated disrespect toward Russia’s representation at the UN. In an unusually blunt exchange, Lavrov mocked the UN’s procedural rigidity, suggesting that while terrorist organizations like al-Qaeda are open to dialogue, Russia’s rightful symbols are ignored. The episode underscores growing frustration in Moscow over what it sees as the UN’s biased treatment of Russia in international forums. #lavrov #un #guterres #russia #unitednations #flagcontroversy #timesnowworld #diplomacy #worldnews #internationalrelations #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld
