Gutres under fire: Hand pressure with Putin causes excitement!

Kasan, Russland - Kasan (dpa) - a scandal that sloshed to Austria! UN General Secretary António Guterres causes outrage after he shook his hand when he visited Kremlinir Putin when he visited Russia and hugged himself with the controversial Belarusian ruler Alexander Lukaschenko. Julia Nawalnaja, the oppositional voice and widow of the detained Alexej Nawalny, expressed her anger on the short message service X: "It is the third year of war, and the UN General Secretary has shaken his hand!"

While Guterres appeared at the summit of the aspiring economic nations (BRICS) with almost 30 countries in Kazan, Putin is the focus of the international community due to alleged war crimes and has an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court in the Hague. Critics like the Eastern Europe expert Janis Kluge from the Science and Politics Foundation shake the head about Guterres' appears: "Can someone bring the old man home? He seems to be confused and these people take advantage of it." The Belarusian dictator Lukashenko even presented Gutrees a sculpture of storks that are considered a symbol of peace in Belarus, which makes the situation appear even absurd.

The Ukrainian government also did not leave her opinion behind the mountain. Sharp criticism had already been hailed before and after Gutre's ’appearance. Lukaschko, who is the last dictator of Europe, is Putin's ally supporter in the war against Ukraine. Putin himself celebrated the summit as a "historical event" on the way to a new multipolar world order, without the dominance of the West. But there were also voices among the other participants of the summit that advocated a fair end of the conflict in Ukraine - an ironic turn in the middle of this tense political water situation.
