“As for further meetings in Istanbul – we are ready for such meetings. We appreciate the UN’s interest in somehow connecting, marking its presence. But, honestly, it will not add anything other than some symbolism, “aniya.
Lavrov said that if Ukraine removes the ports of the mines, the Russian Federation will not use this situation as part of a military operation.
“When and if Ukraine goes into demining and allows the removal of ships from its ports, we will not use this situation in favor of a special operation. These are guarantees of the President of Russia and we are ready to make it’s formal in one way or another, ”Lavrov said.
He also commented on the possibility of a meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Zelensky wants a meeting for the sake of a conference. He has seven Fridays for a week. He has already stated more than once: I will speak, we will only resume negotiations if the Russians withdraw their contingents in line on February 24. But this is a futile approach, moreover, it is completely contrary to those initiatives, which the Ukrainian delegation itself presented on March 29 here in Istanbul, “he said.
According to Lavrov, it is necessary for the negotiating teams to continue their work.
Earlier it was reported that Turkey has prepared a roadmap to export Ukrainian grain. Ankara is discussing this issue in Moscow, but Ukraine is not engaged in negotiations.
