Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused NATO and the EU of using Ukraine to declare a “real war” against his country on Thursday in his UN speech that Britain dismissed as “false fantasy world distortions”.

He spoke at a G20 meeting, saying, “Another clear example is the crisis in Ukraine provoked by the West, through which NATO and the EU have already declared a real war on my country and are directly involved in it.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
