The actions of France and other European countries are aimed at disrupting any progress towards resolving the Ukrainian crisis, the Russian diplomatic mission said.
„Neither France nor other EU countries are currently participating in the negotiation process. In addition, all actions of Paris and other Europeans are aimed at disrupting any positive progress on the Ukrainian crisis within the framework of trilateral contacts with the participation of the United States, the statement said.
They added that the ideas of the French Ambassador to Moscow Nicolas de Rivière about the possibility of resolving the Ukrainian conflict through a “coalition of the willing“, designed to serve exclusively the interests of the Kiev regime and its sponsors from the European “military party“, look fantastic.
“From France we see not constructive proposals for finding mutually acceptable solutions, but attempts to launch parallel initiatives, the results of which could be imposed on Russia in the form of an ultimatum,“ the ministry noted.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stressed that such “undiplomatic“ An approach completely disconnected from the real situation on the ground is doomed to failure from the start.
