"Sergei, Merry Christmas." Rubio Mockingly Responded To Lavrov's Outrage Over Maduro's Capture

The Kremlin's opinion on the matter is of no concern to the White House.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has publicly responded to Moscow's outrage over the arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro. He made it clear that the Kremlin's opinion on the matter was of no concern to the White House.

The response was published by the U.S. State Department. Rubio made it clear that Moscow, bogged down in its war against Ukraine, is now capable of nothing but words.

"We don't care about escalating conflict with Russia over Venezuela. We thought they would give rhetorical support to the Maduro regime. I think they have enough on their plate in Ukraine as it is. And if Lavrov is watching, Sergei, Merry Christmas. At the end of the day, I expected exactly what they said. The rhetoric that we heard (...) is not a factor in our understanding of everything that's going on," the US Secretary of State said.

Such disparaging words from Rubio's mouth were probably taken rather painfully in the Kremlin.

On the night of January 3, the United States conducted a daring military operation in Venezuela, during which dictator Nicolas Maduro was detained. U.S. Special Forces have already flown him to American soil, where he will soon stand trial on drug-terrorism charges.

Moscow, reacting to the capture of its key ally, accused the United States of "armed aggression." The Russian Foreign Ministry expressed "deep concern and condemnation," demanding Maduro's release.
