The Russian diplomat said: "Besides such verbal influences, there is also serious pressure, and Central Asia is threatened to withdraw its markets and investments in these countries so that they do not dare to help Russia circumvent the sanctions."
 
Lavrov noted that the governments of Central Asian countries also have to consider such threats.
