The actions taken by “American colleagues” were based on “inflated ambitions and ignorance.” Official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova told reporters about this today.

“This was confirmed by the statement of the US Permanent Representative to the UN Samantha Power, who recently said that the United States “defeated fascism and communism and is fighting authoritarianism and nihilism.” This is stated by a person working at the UN, which was founded by the international community following the Second World War. Isn't it a shame to say this? Where is the anti-Hitler coalition? Only the USA won? Then it was necessary to add – on one’s own territory, to signify complete ignorance,” said Zakharova.
The Russian diplomat even more harshly ridiculed the claim that the United States had defeated communism.
“Samantha Power sat at the Security Council table face to face with a representative of China. She could simply inquire about the size of the Chinese Communist Party. Well, so as not to be ashamed to go to the Security Council, they defeated communism,” noted the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry
She also advised Power to find out from which countries the money was coming to the Clinton Foundation.
“This is about the fight against authoritarianism. Are they fighting him by getting money from him?” Zakharova said ironically.
She did not comment on the statement regarding the fight against nihilism.
“This is philosophical obscurantism. Much can be explained by such phrases,” Zakharova said.
