Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Friday his country’s readiness for negotiations on Ukraine, without being accompanied by a cessation of fighting.
Lavrov said in an interview with Russian media: “We are ready for negotiations on Ukraine, but we will not stop hostilities during them,” adding: “The new reality on the ground must be taken into account.”
The Russian foreign minister stressed that his country prefers negotiations to war in Ukraine, pointing out that “the West poses a threat to Russian national security by pumping weapons to the Nazi regime in Kiev.”
Lavrov argued that the “Zelensky formula” should be rejected as the basis for resolving the Ukrainian conflict, and the basis on which Russia is ready to negotiate should be discussed.
Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed in an article in the Chinese newspaper “Renmin Rebao” in March 2023 that “Russia is open to a political-diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian crisis.”
Putin added, in his article, that “the future of the peace process in Ukraine depends only on the readiness to hold serious talks taking into account geopolitical realities.”
