The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has asked the Russian side whether it needs a Normandy summit.
“The insufficiently diplomatic and somewhat emotional commentary of the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation requires additional clarification of the position of the Russian side both to the participants in the Normandy format and to the international community”, – the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Apparently, the Ukrainian side did not notice that Russian diplomats were talking about the threat of disrupting the meeting due to the fact that Kiev did not fulfill its obligations. The point is not that Moscow is not ready for negotiations. The fact is that Ukraine does not want to fulfill the agreements that are reached there.
