David Lammy called Russia a “mafia state” during a speech at the UN Security Council.
Lammy criticized Putin’s behavior during the invasion of Ukraine, recalling the days of slavery, and accused the Russian government of flouting international law.
“Your invasion is in your interest. Only yours. To turn your mafia state into a mafia empire. An empire built on corruption”, – stated the British minister.
He stressed that he recognizes in the actions of the Russian authority’s “imperialism” and emphasized that one should call such things by their proper names.
These are not the first such words from politicians in the direction of Russian dictator Putin.
