MOSCOW REGION, March 17 (RIA Novosti) - The United States have failed to impose a unipolar world order, as its influence on the global politics has weakened, Russia's foreign minister said Saturday.
Speaking at a Foreign and Defense Policy Council meeting, Sergei Lavrov said military, political and economic resources of one power were not enough to solve global problems.
"The current state of affairs shows that the unipolar world order has not and could not be developed," the minister said.
Lavrov said that the U.S. disproportionate influence on the global situation was declining, and benefits of a multi-polar world came to the fore although some in the U.S. could not accept the idea.
He said new power centers had emerged, as the West was losing its globalization monopoly.
