Originally published at: Russia Says West Building Iron Curtain Around Itself | Infostormer.com
Russia just said what myself and others have said about the recent actions of the West. That they are quickly building an iron curtain around itself and isolating themselves from the rest of the world.
RT:
A new “Iron Curtain” is being drawn across Europe, this time by Western powers seeking to cut off Russia and Belarus over the conflict in Ukraine. While meeting his Belarusian counterpart in Minsk on Tuesday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the EU destroyed relations with Moscow, built over decades, practically overnight.
His Belarusian counterpart, Vladimir Makei, added “The Iron Curtain is now being erected by Westerners themselves.” He clarified he was referring not just to the severance of political and economic contact, but to the physical barrier erected along the Poland-Belarus border.
Makei said the isolationism was one-sided, as Belarus continues to advocate for dialogue with the West and seek diplomatic solutions to problems.
“It is practically already up,” Lavrov agreed, adding that Western countries “are only doing it carefully, so as not to pinch anything off, but the process is underway.”

Finland responded to Sergei Lavrov's comments on an iron curtain between Russia and the West by stating that Russian aggression has created an "iron wall" between Russia and other countries
The concept of a new iron curtain is getting normalized in official discourse

Tell me who is being aggressive. Russia or NATO?
NATO has been expanding towards Russia for the past three decades. The United States via Jews like Victoria Nuland funded a coup in the Ukraine to install an illegitimate government run by Jews. Since that time, they have attacked Russians in the eastern part of the country and done all sorts of other aggressive things that threatened Russia’s national security. This is what prompted the Russian military response.
Long story short, the Finnish stance is ridiculous and absurd.
Economically speaking, the BRICS countries comprising of Brazil, Russia, China, India and South Africa are now a larger economic bloc than the G7.

The BRICS is Important if not more important than the G7.

This is why Russia does not care about the West. The rest of the world sees the Ukraine situation as something that occurred as the result of Western aggression against Russia.
Western economies are getting destroyed over this anti-Russia hysteria and we will all suffer because of it. The iron curtain statement is 100 percent accurate.
