“We not only listened, but also heard each other,” Lavrov. “And I have reason to believe that the American side has started to better understand our position, which we have once again outlined in detail, using specific examples, based on President Putin’s repeated speeches.”

The meeting marked the most extensive contact between the two countries since Moscow’s Feb. 24, 2022, invasion. Lavrov and then-U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken talked briefly on the sidelines of a G-20 meeting in India nearly two years ago, but tensions remained high.

    Why was Ukraine not involved? These talks have absolutely no legitimacy.

    This is just Russia talking to its own agents in the West. A kangaroo court assembled to try Ukraine for its audacity to exist.
