Russia: Relations with US 'worse' now than during the Cold War

Relations between the United States and Russia are worse now than they were during the Cold War, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Monday.

“The situation is worse compared to the classical Cold War since some sort of rules were in force at that time and some decency was in place,” Lavrov said, according to TASS, a state-run media outlet. “Today, our Western partners and I first of all refer to the Great Britain, the United States and some other countries, which are blindly guided by them, put all of their decency aside and resort to bold lies and fake news.”
