Washington is ready to accept that if the seizure of territories and the overthrow of the government take place with the blessing of the United States.

Axar.az reports that Russia's State Duma deputy Ruslan Balbek said this in response to US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's statement on the differences between the recognition of Crimea and the Golan Heights.

According to him, the United States violates international law grossly.

"During the US expansion we only see violations of international norms, devastation and cruelty that cannot be justified," the MP said.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, explaining why Washington does not recognize Crimea as a Russian territory, said there are many conflicts in the world that differ from their actual circumstances.
