According to a report by the Moscow Times, Lavrov made the comments during an interview on Russian national television. Lavrov noted that Russia has always supported efforts to “get rid of racism” and has promoted “equal rights of people of any skin color”.
However, he said it was vital “not to switch to the other extreme which we saw during the ‘BLM’ (Black Lives Matter) events and the aggression against white people, white U.S. citizens.” The far-left Black Lives Matter movement has engaged in unprovoked attacks on white people in the United States, citing twisted grounds of racial justice.
