Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has made provocative statements regarding the ongoing Ukraine conflict, urging for a shift in diplomatic approaches. Lavrov emphasized that peace efforts should not be seen as a "zero-sum game," but rather as a process of listening to both sides and seeking common ground. In a direct response to European Union and NATO leaders, he criticized their vehement opposition to US-Russia talks, calling their reaction “unhealthy” and detrimental to peace efforts. Lavrov also condemned NATO Chief Jens Stoltenberg for instructing Ukrainian President Zelensky not to make any concessions to Russia, accusing him of "abusing his position." Lavrov’s remarks highlight the growing divide between Russia and Western powers, as both sides remain entrenched in their positions.
