'Doctrine of dominance': Russia accuses US of energy grab, says Iran, Venezuela actions 'about oil'

Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has accused the US of prioritizing oil and energy dominance, alleging military actions in Iran and Venezuela are resource-driven.

He claims Washington disregards international law, opting for power over rules.

Lavrov urged the US towards dialogue, criticizing policy shifts that strain relations and push Europe away from Russian gas, likening it to a 'colonial era'.
