00:00 Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has dismissed claims by Ukrainian officials that
00:04 Moscow benefits from the Israel-Hamas conflict.
00:07 Lavrov accused the Ukrainian authorities of being "out and out" cynics whose only goal
00:12 is to not be forgotten and fear the West could increasingly focus on the latest war.
00:18 The Russian top diplomat has stated that unfortunately for Ukraine, there are unauthorized conflicts
00:23 in the world that the United States considers more important.
00:26 "I don't want to comment on this.
00:33 These are completely heartened cynics.
00:35 Their only task is so that they are not forgotten, but they may be forgotten."
00:40 "Now, when everyone discusses a tragedy in Gaza where a hospital was attacked, hundreds
00:47 of people were killed and injured.
00:50 It would also be possible to ask the US for satellite data, because this is the territory
00:57 they definitely monitor from satellites, and this kind of attack could not go unnoticed."
01:04 "We are committed to the decision of the Security Council, which has not been cancelled
01:12 or abandoned, and which involves reaching an agreement on the creation of a Palestinian
01:17 state based on the 1967 borders with its capital in East Jerusalem.
01:24 Everyone knows that Israel, through its unilateral actions to expand so-called settlements, violates
01:29 this resolution."
