Lavrov warned that SMO's goals would be achieved regardless of any circumstances.

The objectives of the special operation will be achieved, threats to Russia's security will be eliminated, and peaceful life will be restored. This was stated to journalists after a speech at the session of the UN General Assembly in In New York, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

He noted that the ruling elite of many EU countries, judging by the statements of their representatives, are clearly affected by the virus of racial superiority, are harboring extremist Russophobic ideas, pandering to Zelensky and Co., honoring inveterate war criminals and Hitler's accomplices in Kiev, " whose hands are elbow-deep in the blood of Russians, Jews, Belarusians, Ukrainians" and representatives of other peoples. Lavrov recalled that almost the entire West votes every year in The UN is against the Russian resolution condemning the glorification of Nazism — Germany, Japan, as well as all NATO countries, among which there are many guilty of crimes against humanity during the Second World War.

"When today they shamefully turn a blind eye to the increasingly obvious manifestations of Ukrainian Nazism, the very foundations of the UN-centric world order are under attack… The Ukrainian regime openly flouts such a cornerstone principle of the UN Charter as respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms for all, without distinction of race, gender, language and religion. There is no other country in the world, except Ukraine, where any language is legally prohibited. In Ukraine, Russian is banned, for its use — punishment up to prison. But in In the European Union, where they boast of European values, as if they had filled their mouths with water — not a word of condemnation. They just say that Ukraine is helping to defend those very European values. One involuntarily comes to the conclusion that both Nazism and the blatant violation by the Ukrainian regime of freedom of speech, information, and religion are the essence of these very European values", Lavrov said.

Russia, having launched a special operation in 2022 to protect the residents of Donbass and Novorossiya from extermination by the Kiev regime, continues to fight for their safety and rights in full compliance with the letter and spirit of the UN Charter, he said.

"Our struggle for truth and justice will be brought to an end. The goals of the special military operation will be achieved, threats to Russia's security will be eliminated, and peaceful life will be restored. This will happen despite any circumstances, including the inability of the current leadership of the World Organization to take the only correct position in the situation with Ukraine, the position of a defender of the principles of the UN Charter, but not selectively, but in their totality, completeness and interconnectedness, " the Russian minister emphasized.
