Serhiy Polyovyk

Vadym Volokhov
Russia’s participation in the process of settlement of the Libyan conflict and cooperation in this matter with Turkey clearly testify to the decline of Russia to the level of a regional state. In the past, Moscow used to consult with Washington and was directly involved in world affairs, and now its level is Turkey, Syria, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Egypt
