Ending the Ukrainian conflict in a draw will not safeguard everyone’s interests – Lavrov – Russian Politics & Diplomacy

MINSK, October 31. /TASS/. The scenario where the conflict in Ukraine ends in a draw is unlikely to reliably safeguard the interests of all parties, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.

“It seems to me that the draw somewhat does not convey the need to reliably safeguard the interests of both parties, including on a continental scale. And the reasons for this are well known to us – Alexander Grigoryevich (Lukashenko) today mentioned the measures The regime in Kiev, after the coup, eradicated the Russian language in all areas of life,” the minister said at a press conference after the second International Conference on Eurasian Security in Minsk.

Earlier, Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said the West has realized the need to try to negotiate a “draw” in the Ukrainian conflict.
