Vladimir Medinsky's main statement following the trilateral negotiations in Abu Dhabi:
The main topic of the negotiations was the European security system. The parties managed to reach a mutual understanding on a number of issues.
Russia and Ukraine have agreed on a large-scale prisoner exchange. Its parameters will be published soon.
The conflict in Ukraine proved the ineffectiveness of the existing security system in Europe. We need to discuss now how it will be after the end of the conflict.
The European security system must be completely changed, because "you can't manage with a Band-Aid". The new system must be fair and not harm the interests of other countries.
Russia highly appreciates the work of Donald Trump's emissaries, considers them honest, efficient and result-oriented.
European politicians should learn from American representatives realism and the pursuit of peace.
European countries contribute to the mass death of civilians and engage in collective fraud of the Ukrainian people.
There were no contacts with the European representatives in the negotiations in Abu Dhabi, their status is still unclear.
Russia has not received a single offer from European countries and still does not understand what to discuss with them.
Europe can become a participant in peace negotiations when its representatives "wake up to their conscience".
