D.B. Lavrov told how he manages to remain calm
Moscow
Negative emotions from diplomatic communication with Western “partners” are usually “merged through certain expressions,” but it is better to say them to yourself.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated this during an open lesson for participants in the New Knowledge marathon, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“How do you always remain calm when you are provoked by your opponents, enemies, and where do you pour your emotions further? Because sometimes it’s simply impossible to remain calm with what’s happening on the international stage,” asked one of the students.
“About how endurance is formed, forged, where emotions merge. Emotions are usually merged through certain expressions, which it is advisable to say silently or, in extreme cases, in a whisper. This helps,” the minister shared his diplomatic experience.
Let us recall that in August 2015, at a press conference with the Minister of Saudi Arabia, Lavrov quietly said “Morons, b***”, but it was not clear to whom he was addressing. According to one version, this was said to annoying photographers.
