“You have already listed a number of recent steps by the US administration, which testify to one thing - the administration's intention to do everything not to be bound by any international multilateral obligations,” the Foreign Minister said on the air on Russia.
He noted that the extraterritorial sanctions applied by it testify to Washington's position.
“When the US decides that China is a threat because it sells too much to the US and buys too little, the Americans impose restrictions on imports from the PRC. When the United States decides that Iran, although it fulfills everything that was agreed within the framework of the JCPOA, nevertheless behaves badly (everyone else does not think so), then sanctions are imposed against Iran, ”RIA Novosti quotes Lavrov.
At the same time, then the United States "declares to all other countries of the world that they do not dare to trade with those states that the United States wants to isolate," he added.
Earlier, Lavrov said that the American administration is overwhelmed by the desire to "restrain everyone but itself."
