NUSA DUA, Indonesia (Reuters) – Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was not present for much of the afternoon session of a G20 meeting in Bali on Friday and left the room after giving his remarks, the European Union’s foreign policy chief said.
Josep Borrell told reporters Lavrov spoke and did not wait to hear other remarks, in conduct that was “not very respectful”. Lavrov had earlier chided Western countries for what he described as “frenzied criticism” of Russia.
