Lavrov: Putin and Trump will say the last word about bilateral dialogue
reports Mehr News Agency Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov quoted President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Donald Trump to call and negotiate with Ukraine. They will make decisions independently.
Lavrov said Trump has repeatedly announced his readiness to make phone calls and in-person visits. Putin also responded to the US president’s remarks, saying he was welcomed. As we can expect, they will make the final decision. No doubt that the relevant information will be provided.
The Russian Foreign Minister, meanwhile, opposed the reporter’s comment that “everyone is eager to meet Putin and Trump”, adding: “Do you really think the whole world is waiting?” In my opinion, the whole world is not waiting. There are those who think that any contact between Moscow and Washington is in conflict with their interests!
He specifically drew the attention of attendees at the EU’s foreign policy chief Cajaja Calas, who said, “Without European participation, there is nothing to dialogue.” /p>
“They clearly feel that they have fallen into the hierarchy of the world,” Lavrov continued. Distance from this place will not be easy.
