MOSCOW, December 11. /TASS/. The Russian side has submitted additional proposals regarding collective security guarantees to the United States, Russia’s top diplomat Sergey Lavrov stated at a roundtable discussion on Ukraine with ambassadors.
The ongoing Russia-US talks are aimed at finding a long-term solution to end the Ukraine conflict, he noted.
TASS has compiled the key takeaways from statements by the Russian foreign minister.
Russia has recorded multiple bogus news and speculations about Ukraine, Lavrov said. "We believe that such actions initiated by our Western colleagues are mostly aimed at hampering efforts to find a solution at talks and prolong the conflict," he stated.
By doing so, Lavrov continued, the Europeans are actually disrupting US President Donald Trump’s initiatives "to find a way out that would help remove the root causes of the Ukraine crisis."
