Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Sunday that Western countries, along with Volodymyr Zelensky, were trying to block peace talks on Ukraine, but Russia hoped that these attempts would be in vain.
« They are just looking for an excuse to prevent negotiations and want this to happen through no fault of their own, no fault of Zelensky’s, who is also acting stubborn and putting forward some conditions, demanding an immediate meeting with [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, no matter what », Lavrov said.
