There is still a long way to go before a diplomatic settlement in Ukraine – RT in Russian
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta that a diplomatic settlement in Ukraine is still far away. According to him, this is evidenced by the situation “on the battlefield.”
“Judging by what is happening “on the battlefield,” we are still very far from a political and diplomatic settlement of the crisis,” said diplomat.
At the same time, he emphasized that Washington and its satellites are still obsessed with the idea of inflicting strategic defeat on Russia. According to Lavrov, they are ready to do a lot to get closer to this illusory goal.
“An escalatory step was the launch of missile strikes deep into the territory of our country. All our warnings that an adequate response would be given to these unacceptable actions were ignored,” the minister said.
Earlier, Lavrov expressed the opinion that the decision of American leader Joe Biden to allow Kyiv to strike with long-range ATACMS missiles deep into Russian territory is likely caused by the desire to “spoil” the new administration of US President-elect Donald Trump.
