Russian FM Accuses US of Seeking Control Over Global Energy Sector

Sergey Lavrov the Russian Foreign Minister has accused the Trump administration of attempting to “Seize” influence over the global energy market.

The US objective is to force Russian energy firms such as Lukoil and Rosneft out of international markets as part of a broader strategy to control global energy flows, said Lavrov.

“The United States has adopted a series of doctrinal documents, one of which proclaims that the US must dominate global energy markets,” he said in an interview earlier this week.

“So their goal is entirely clear: they want to bring every significant energy supply route under their control.”

The comments come as the US and Iran continue their separate blockades of the Strait of Hormuz, through which about 20 percent of the world’s energy resources traverse.

He added US is trying to get control by foul means and bloodbath all over the World, If US continues it would be difficult for US to sustain anymore as a country.
