The United States has not mentioned by name in the sentence. However, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at a press conference after talks with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi.

While Russia’s ambassador is back in Moscow for talks after US President Joe Biden said President Vladimir Putin was a murderer. On the first day of his two-day visit to China, Lavrov urged Moscow and Beijing to reduce their reliance on the US dollar. The joint statement issued on Tuesday encouraged other countries to refrain from meddling in Russia and China’s domestic relations.
Moreover, Lavrov said that European and Western sanctions were unfair to Russia and China. The United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Canada sanctioned a number of Chinese officials on Monday for suspected human rights violations in Xinjiang. Hence, Russia is bracing for fresh US sanctions in response to what Washington claims is its meddling in the 2020 US presidential election. Lavrov also slammed the European Union, accusing Brussels of weakening Russia-EU ties. He stated that Moscow now only has contacts with individual EU member states.
