Lavrov is to Putin what Joseph Goebbles was to Hitler

Because NATO is the collective force of the West which strongly opposes the barbaric invasion of Ukraine by Russia. 

From the NATO website.

It doesn't say anything about protecting non member countries.

Security in our daily lives is key to our well-being. NATO’s purpose is to guarantee the freedom and security of its members through political and military means.

Lloyd's of London faces £6bn claim over planes stolen by Putin

 

"The case – the biggest-ever insurance dispute over aviation – has been brought after more than 400 Western jets worth £8 billion were seized by Putin's government in the wake of his invasion of Ukraine last February. It is alleged the move by senior Kremlin figures was in retaliation against UK and EU sanctions".

Ukraine war: Russian reservists fighting with shovels - UK defence ministry

 

Russian reservists are likely using "shovels" for "hand-to-hand" combat in Ukraine due to a shortage of ammunition, the UK's Ministry of Defence says.

 

In late February, reservists described being ordered to assault a Ukrainian position "armed with only 'firearms and shovels'", the ministry said in its latest intelligence update.

 

It mentioned a shovel known as MPL-50.

Russian army forced to deploy 60-year-old T-62 main battle tanks. Russian BTR-50 armoured personnel carriers, first fielded in 1954, have also been deployed in Ukraine for the first time.

 

 

Even more funnier due to shortage of ammunition tanks use MPL-50 shovels instead of modern shells, russian army is a joke.

Russia has “wasted huge amounts of human resources, armaments, and materials” during the war in Ukraine, and it will likely run out of offensive potential by late spring, Ukrainian military intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov said in an interview with USA Today published on March 5.

Budanov said “a decisive battle” is set to take place this spring, and predicted that “this battle will be the final one before this war ends,” USA Today reported.

It is not all good news:

 

Russia’s relentless assault on Bakhmut is sacrificing waves and waves of unprepared men being sent to their deaths. 

But multiple defenders of this embattled city in Donetsk Oblast feel that they are in a similar boat, according to interviews with more than a dozen soldiers currently fighting in or around Bakhmut. 

During their brief visits to the nearby town of Kostiantynivka, Ukrainian infantrymen told the Kyiv Independent of unprepared, poorly-trained battalions being thrown into the front line meat grinder to survive as best they could with little support from armored vehicles, mortars, artillery, drones and tactical information. 

“We don’t get any support,” says a soldier named Serhiy, who has been fighting on the front lines in Bakhmut, sitting down with his friend, also named Serhiy, for a conversation in a small cafe in the Kostiantynivka market. Both men are in their 40s but one of them is a bit older than the other.

T62 is a luxury that not everyone can afford!

Wagner chief warns of collapse of Russian frontline if there is retreat from Bakhmut

Thats funny, i watched this video on which BBC put a link and he said nothing like that, he said actually opposite. It is true there was a complain about ammunition being under supplied but it was couple of weeks ago and certainly not in the video as of 3rd march.
