This was reported by TASS with reference to the statement of the Russian diplomatic mission in connection with the statement of the press secretary of the State Department, Ned Price, at a briefing.

“The official, among other things, allowed himself an unacceptable thesis that Vladimir Putin’s words about the absence of anyone’s interest in the Russian Federation should be taken as“ irony in the highest degree, ”the embassy noted.

As diplomats pointed out, Price reduced his entire argument to a favorite topic about a Russian special operation in Ukraine. 

“At a time when we are under unprecedented pressure from the collective West led by the United States, the natural reaction is to further deepen interaction.

Apparently, this development of events causes irritation in the United States, which does not abandon attempts to isolate the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus in the international arena,” the embassy added.

Earlier, the head of the KGB of Belarus, Ivan Tertel, said that the special services in the West are trying to break off relations between Moscow and Minsk.
