Earlier, Lavrov during a press conference said that the United States had organized an anti-Russian coalition and "through Ukraine, by proxy, they are waging war against our country" in order to finally resolve the "Russian question."
In a similar way, he said, Hitler wanted to finally solve the "Jewish question".
“There can be no parallel between the crimes of Nazi Germany and international assistance to Ukraine to protect its territory and people,” Borrell wrote on Twitter.
He called such statements by Lavrov "inappropriate".
Earlier, the White House called offensive Lavrov's comparison of US policy with Hitler's actions.
