Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov recently made headlines by saying that a secret group called the “Deep State” has a lot of power over politics in the United States.
Lavrov believes this hidden group works behind the scenes, changing events and decisions to help themselves, even if it goes against what the elected government wants.
He especially mentioned President Joe Biden’s actions, suggesting that Biden is trying to undo or weaken the work of his predecessor, former President Donald Trump.
Lavrov’s words fit into a bigger story often talked about in different political groups, where the term “Deep State” is used to describe a network of long-time government workers, intelligence officers, and other powerful people who supposedly act without considering the elected officials.
