Summary
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that Russia rejects a weak ceasefire in Ukraine, instead seeking a legally binding peace deal ensuring the security of Russia and its neighbors.
Lavrov accused the West of using truces to re-arm Ukraine and called for agreements preventing future violations.
President Putin expressed readiness for talks with Trump but ruled out territorial concessions or Ukraine’s NATO membership, a key Russian concern.
Ukraine remains committed to pursuing NATO membership despite Russia’s objections.
No, it must not. At least not before it returns all the occupied areas, submits the perpetrators to the court of international justice, and pays reparations for their aggressions. Then we can talk about securities.

Russia wants time to rearm, but doesn’t want the people they’re attacking doing the same thing.
Typical fascist rhetoric: accuse others of what you want to do
accuse others of what you want to do
Hey, that’s Republican territory.

I do believe @sexy_peach was not stuttering or being confused
Exactly, and we’re need to be extra careful when talking about any deal: https://youtu.be/MhpoNL1gZbw
Ok, so a return to 1994 and the Budapest memorandum[0]. Sounds good to me!
Remember, Russia is the only offensive party in all of this.
I’m sure we can give the same security guarantees Ukraine got, in exchange for Russia similarly giving up its nuclear weapons.
You find a way to force Russia to hand all their nuclear weapons to NATO and you got yourself a deal. Ukraine will even promise not to invade Russia once that is done.
Bro, literally nobody is threatening Russia besides you clowns.
I’ve carefully considered Russia’s concerns and security, and after 3 years I’ve ultimately decided that I don’t give a fuck about Genocidal Fascist Warmonger’s Fee-fees.
Ukraine’s sovereingty doesn’t end where Russian hurt feelings begin.
I don’t think “genocidal” should be used here. Israel is doing it to Palestinians but I don’t think Russia invading Ukraine is the same. War crimes for sure…
hard disagree. If you consider the behaivor of both the Russian state and its military, not what its talking heads say. Russia’s intention is to erase the idea of Ukraine as a nation. Forced education, Children kidnapped, objectors thrown into brutal “filtration camps”. resistance is met with murder.
The only reason people are arguing that it isnt a genocide, is because Russia has successfully waged one of the largest white-washing information operations in human history on the internet. convicing millions of people that they, the aggressor, are also the victim.
Aren’t they kidnapping children for “reeducation” and whatnot…? I think that counts as genocide…
And even if they weren’t (currently) doing it in Ukraine they’ve been doing it elsewhere, like in Chechnya…
And, well, genocides, pogroms, and whatnot have been a Russian tradition for a long time… Ukraine in particular still remembers Stalin’s holodomor, and the deportation of the Crimean Tatars…
Hell, if there’s such a thing as unintentional genocide or genocide by incompetence they’ve probably been doing it to themselves for centuries… “… and then things got worse” and all that…
Code for: no NATO for Ukraine, we get some time to build up and have another crack in a few years
STFU moscow
Get fucked
Just a whore arguing over the price. The most natural thing in the world for a Russian politician.
fuck you ruZZia.
Autocrats accusing the other side of what they are doing themselves. Old as time.
It’s hard to tell by the article if Lavrov believes the bullshit he’s spewing, or if he’s just the poor guy who has to spin Putins bullshit or else fall off a balcony
By this moment, he had many opportunities to disappear, I believe.
May he feel secure in a cell
