MOSCOW, November 26. /TASS/. London continues to live in a fantasy world where Ukraine is concerned, thinking that sending more weapons to Kiev will improve the situation, and that sanctions have Moscow on the brink of economic collapse, Russian ambassador to the UK Andrey Kelin said.
"I would say that London is currently living in a world of political illusions," the diplomat pointed out during a Rossiya-24 TV broadcast. "They are well aware that negotiations are underway. They know the main outlines and the approximate contours of the agreement, which we consider a possible basis for negotiations. Nevertheless, they are not making any move to meet us," he noted.
According to him, after the Geneva negotiations, which included US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the Ukrainian delegation, "supported by foreign policy advisers from London, Paris, and Germany," a certain euphoria arose in London: "It’s now evident in their commentaries that they want to continue their previous policy of putting pressure on Russia in the hope that the economy will collapse, something they have been dreaming of all these years, knowing full well that sanctions generally do not work," the ambassador pointed out.
