Meeting between Lavrov and Kuleba adjourned without substantial result
The meeting of the foreign ministers of Ukraine and Russia is over!
In his remarks, Dmitry Kuleba made it clear that there was not much progress since Sergei Lavrov did not change the Russian position.
I came to agree on a humanitarian corridor for Mariupol, he said, stressing that the situation in the city is desperate. “Unfortunately, Lavrov was not in a position to commit. ”
“We raised the issue of a 24-hour ceasefire to solve some humanitarian issues, but we did not agree on that either. It is probably for others in Russia to decide. ”
For his part, Sergei Lavrov reiterated Moscow‘s accusations that “nationalists in Ukraine are using civilians as shields“.
