Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov drew attention during his visit to Alaska by wearing a shirt with the USSR logo.
The editorial office reports that Lavrov's attire was evaluated as a political message ahead of high-level talks between the US and Russia in Alaska. Analysts state that the choice of USSR symbols could point to Moscow's historical claims and symbolic diplomacy.
The incident was widely discussed by the public and media outlets. Although the US side stated that the clothing choice would not affect the official agenda of the talks, some observers evaluated this move as a visual expression of the increasing tension between the two countries.
