Russia’s Lavrov says West seeking Hitler-style ‚final solution,‘ sparking protests – In latest controversial remarks on Holocaust, Moscow’s top diplomat claims US and Europe trying to wipe out Russia by waging war via Ukraine; Israel calls comments ‘unacceptable’ | Timesofisrael

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the US and Europe on Wednesday of seeking a “final solution” to “the Russia question” comparable to Adolf Hitler’s plan to wipe out the Jews in World War II, drawing anger from Israel, Germany and some of Moscow’s other Western adversaries.
“Just as Napoleon mobilized practically all of Europe against the Russian Empire, just as Hitler mobilized and captured… the majority of European countries and sent them against the Soviet Union, now the United States has organized a coalition,” Lavrov said at an annual press conference.
