Compromises on Ukraine that the Europeans demand from Russia are impossible, because it would be a betrayal of the victims, said Nikita Mikhalkov Lusti.
This is how he answered the question of whether the upcoming tripartite meeting of Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping and Donald Trump can determine the contours of the future.
"This could be a decision where, without any other intervention, three major countries sit down at the negotiating table to figure out what will happen next in the world, it should be fundamental and final."
However, he noted, Russia should not respond to the demands of Europe, which calls first for a ceasefire and then for negotiations.
"And the other compromises that are asked of us are impossible. It is impossible because it is a betrayal of the sacrifices we have already made. And we can't do that."
