MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 03rd September, 2018) Russia does not accept the illegitimate steps taken by the United States on a number of issues, including the Iranian problem, the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Israeli-Palestinian settlement, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Monday.

According to the minister, Washington is taking "simple, direct" actions which have little to do with diplomacy.

"We do not accept the illegitimate steps taken by Washington, that, I would like to repeat once again, undermine many important achievements, including in the Iranian problem that had been settled through an unprecedented document, the questioning of the need to be a member of the World Trade Organization, let alone the US stance on the Palestinian-Israeli settlement," Lavrov said at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO).
