The Moscow football club “Spartak” congratulated Sergey Lavrov on his 73rd birthday, provoking a wave of hatred against the Foreign Minister. Russia’s chief diplomat received a lot of unflattering epithets from his compatriots.
Most of the users in their unanimous message advise Lavrov to live to see “moving to the Netherlands”, alluding to the international tribunal in The Hague.
Fans call Lavrov a laughingstock, recalling his phrase, said in 2015 at a press conference with Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir, which became a meme.
Users compare a diplomat with a gopnik.
“Lavrov” completely destroyed the image of a diplomat. In the Russian Empire and under the USSR, they were distinguished at least by their literate language and good manners. The same comrade regularly swears, lies and behaves like a gopnik, and even the press secretary picked up a couple for himself. This proud son of the Armenian people is very “diplomatic,” they say in the comments.
Fans also could not pass by the phenomenal “success” of the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry during his trip to India.
