Lavrov criticizes Zelensky over Donbas decision
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov (pictured) asserted on Monday Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky worsened the situation in Donbas by refusing to order the disengagement of forces and the withdrawal of heavy weapons from the area’s borders.
“He said that such disengagement should be carried out only in three localities. Efforts to agree these localities continue until now. In other words, instead of settling this problem once and for all and make people safe on both sides of the contact line, Zelensky has preserved this problem and aggravated it,” the official claimed.
Additionally, Lavrov stated that he will discuss “attempts to pull Ukraine into NATO” with Turkey, noting that Russia made its position on the issue “very unambiguous.”
