Sergey Lavrov Claims France Proposed Dialogue on Ukraine Without Kyiv's Involvement Through Closed Channels Multiple Times
Dec 26, 2024, 10:54 AM
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has claimed that France has approached Russia multiple times through closed channels to propose establishing a dialogue regarding Ukraine, explicitly excluding Kyiv from the discussions. Lavrov characterized these overtures as contradictory to France's public stance on the conflict, where it has positioned itself as a supporter of Ukraine. He described France as the 'main initiator' of sending troops to Ukraine while simultaneously suggesting negotiations without Ukrainian involvement. Lavrov's comments raise questions about France's diplomatic intentions and the consistency of its foreign policy regarding the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
