On the air of Solovyov Live, the diplomat noted that the reaction of the CSTO is an absolutely legal reaction to the same legal treatment of the authorities of Kazakhstan.
“This favorite thesis (of the West -
RT
) that some kind of non-legal history is going on does not work either.
Therefore, our Western partners mumble, present themselves in an absolutely unprofessional disastrous light, contradict each other.
I have the impression that from complete powerlessness, they also insult.
This insult is absolutely boorish from Blinken - it demonstrates the absence of arguments and a complete failure in terms of developing a political position on this issue, ”Zakharova said.
Earlier, Blinken, commenting on the introduction of Russian peacekeepers into Kazakhstan as part of the collective efforts of the CSTO, said: "One lesson from past history: when Russians are in your house, it can be difficult to force them to leave."
As noted in the Russian Foreign Ministry, the US Secretary of State joked "in his typical boorish manner."
In Moscow, Blinken was asked to recall the lessons of history, including the fact that "when Americans are in your house, it can be difficult to stay alive, not to be robbed or raped."
