The Foreign Ministry called the Russian foreign policy concept endorsed by Russian President Vladimir Putin an April Fool’s joke. The comment from the UK Foreign Office was posted on Twitter.
“April Fool’s Day is tomorrow,” reads the agency’s entry published on August 31.
The London official’s comment served as a reaction to a Russian Foreign Ministry screenshot posted on social media. Information in the photo indicates that the new concept of Russia’s foreign policy is “peace-loving, open, predictable, consistent and pragmatic” and is based on international law.
Previously, Kirill Koktysh, an associate professor at the Department of Political Theory at the State Institute of International Relations of the Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow, said in an interview with Abzats that the approval of a new foreign policy concept means fixing the current geopolitical realities.
