Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov proclaimed on June 30, 2022 that an “Iron Curtain” is being erected between Russia and the Collective West. His remarks came the day after NATO deemed Russia to be NATO’s “most significant and direct threat” to European security.
Since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, the Collective West has imposed heavy sanctions on Russia and has armed Ukraine to the hilt. The goal NATO is pursuing is to bleed Russia out and diplomatically isolate it. To stoke further tensions, NATO formally invited countries such as Finland and Sweden into the military alliance on June 29. Russia responded hostilely describing NATO’s move as “a purely destabilizing factor.”
According to a Press TV report , NATO published a 10-year strategic policy at the NATO summit on June 29, which labeled Russia as the “most significant and direct threat” to the security of its members. Back in 2010, NATO published a strategic policy document, which described Russia as a “strategic partner.” This marks a significant shift in NATO’s position towards Russia.
On June 30, Lavrov proclaimed that a new “iron curtain” was being formed between Russia and the West in the aftermath of Russia’s incursion into Ukraine.
“As far as an iron curtain is concerned, essentially it is already descending. They should just be careful not to pinch anything,” Lavrov said during a press conference. Lavrov added, “The process has begun.”
The Iron Curtain refers to the metaphorical barrier that the Soviet Union erected, where it largely isolated itself economically, ideologically, militarily, and politically from the West after World War II.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
