Lavrov - for the priority of the Constitution over international law
The acting head of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Sergei Lavrov, commenting on Thursday the words of President Vladimir Putin about the need to introduce an amendment to its priority over international law, said that this is not a unique situation. "As you know, we still have explanations of the Constitutional Court that our constitution is a priority legal norm. Similar legal norms are in effect in Western countries, including Germany, in particular, in the UK," Lavrov said .
