“…demilitarisation of Ukraine is a necessary step..”, asserts Lavrov

“We will continue accomplishing the objectives of the special military operation. The demilitarisation of Ukraine is a necessary step. This is clear to everyone, considering the militant clique that is now in charge in Kiev. Denazification, too, is inevitable – and this is also clear to everyone. Kiev’s racist laws legislate the concepts that are part of Nazi ideology and glorify individuals who were convicted by the Nuremberg Tribunal. This is unacceptable in today’s Europe”, says Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in an interview with Bosnian Serb television network when asked about Ukraine conflict.

“We will not participate in any events that promote Vladimir Zelensky’s peace formula in one way or another. This much has been clear to everyone for a long time. We are serious about being open to negotiations based on the reality. Everyone knows this, too – from experience. We have discussed China’s twelve-point initiative. In 2023, we met twice with the leaders of seven African states, led by President of South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa. They put forth their ideas. Following the second meeting between Russia and the African Union, a document was approved that outlined specific humanitarian steps to be taken”, he added spelling out his disappointment from upcoming Swiss peace summit.

“The concept behind the Swiss conference is showing through already, and it is nothing short of Vladimir Zelensky’s peace formula all over again. Admittedly, they tried to underscore Switzerland’s independence by focusing on three tracks: nuclear safety, food security in the context of see shipments, and humanitarian issues. This doesn’t change anything. Vladimir Zelensky’s formula also includes these three issues as something to disguise its openly illusory and Russophobic nature. Vladimir Zelensky and his team insisted that Russia should not be invited to this conference under any circumstances. That was because he needed space to woo the countries of the Global South and sign them up to the common platform, which will be subsequently presented to Russia as an ultimatum”, he added.
