What Maria Zaharova says about the American dream. The Russian official calls the “heel of Achilles” of the West

The Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zaharova, spoke about the United States approach and how it created a certain image of the “so-called American life, the American dream.”

“The United States of America has arranged the right to be considered the number one in the sphere of mass culture, pop culture and today's film culture. And many have shared this opinion, assigned a role and assigned a role to their culture, attributing a place, calling it soft power. Zaharova at the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF), according to TASS, quoted by Agerpres.

The spokesman of the Russian Ministry spoke at a business breakfast entitled “Creating the images of the future: the role of film institutes in the formation of values ​​and visions on the world”.

She says that Hollywood creates a certain image of the “so-called American life, American dream” and this has “led to ideology and the formation of culture cancellation”

“The culture cannot be canceled, it can disappear by itself, it can perish, it can survive time, but it cannot be canceled. But they (the US and the West) can distort it, can cancel it. They understand this, because they have not created a culture, but rather Soft Power and tools, a set of instruments to exercise,” the Russian official added.

Also, Maria Zaharova said that the US has a utilitarian approach to other cultures, considering that in other countries “it is about the same.” “They have the same attitude towards Russia. And, what is most surprising, have the same attitude towards China,” she concluded.
