Ukrainian journalist challenges Russia's foreign minister on accusations of "theft" from Ukraine

CA, 09 Jun 2022
Ukrainian journalist Muslim Umerow challenged Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Wednesday over accusations that Russia is stealing from Ukraine.

"What has Russia already managed to sell from everything that has been stolen in Ukraine — aside from grain," he asked.

Lavrov retorted that Ukrainians were "always so preoccupied with what you can steal," before using an official line Russia has used, that the country was implementing its goals of "de-Nazifying" eastern Ukraine. He also said concerns about Ukraine's grain exports would be resolved if President Volodymyr Zelenskyy allowed foreign and Ukrainian ships into the Black Sea.
