He also criticized the United States because, under various pretexts, they guarantee their own security, operate thousands of kilometers from their territory “and declare them obsolete when they come against international law and the UN Charter.”

“But when they serve their interests, they cite the provisions of international law, the UN Charter, and international human rights,” he lamented, expressing his frustration at these convenient manipulations.

“We are well aware that we can not trust any legal guarantee because for some reason, the United States easily abandons all international agreements that are of no interest to the United States, even for no apparent reason,” he added.

The Russian president has recalled the United States’ withdrawal from anti-missile agreements or the Open Skies Agreement. In turn, he denied that his demands were a final warning.
