US wants to dominate the world: Russia

Published on: 

Russia on Wednesday responded disparagingly to President Barack Obama’s annual State of the Union address, claiming it showed that the United States wanted to dominate world affairs. “Americans have set a course for confrontation,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergei lavrov told reporters. “Obama’s address yesterday shows that there’s just one thing at the heart of (their) philosophy: ‘We are number one’ and the rest should acknowledge that.” “This is a bit out of date and does not correspond to modern realities,” Russia’s top diplomat added in televised remarks. “It shows that the United States wants to dominate the world,” he  said, adding that “being first among equals” was not enough for Washington.
