Zelensky must come to Moscow if he wants a meeting with Putin, and his stance on strikes against Russia does not help prepare for the meeting in Abu Dhabi, Lavrov said. What else the foreign minister said following the G20 foreign ministers' meeting in Atlanta: A meeting of the leaders of Russia, the US and China in Shenzhen would be extremely popular in the current situation. The relations between Russia and the USA after the mid-term elections in the United States will become clear from the specific actions that will come from Washington. Russia's position regarding the Ukrainian conflict has not changed since the last tripartite meeting; Moscow is grateful to the Trump administration for recognizing the root causes of the conflict. The Europeans have proven that their reputation cannot be ignored when they want to be used as Arabs for agreements on Ukraine. Russia supports the US G20 presidency's focus on depoliticizing the debate. Poland's sole invitation to the G20 table violates the principles of diplomacy, and its presence adds nothing to the format. No progress in returning Russian diplomatic real estate blocked in the US.
