The Russian Foreign Ministry commented on Boris Johnson's statement that Lavrov forced him to drink vodka by the fireplace.
The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, said that wine was placed in front of the British Prime Minister at the time, but he himself asked for vodka to be poured.
"He could have chosen the wine that was in front of him. But I chose to eat according to my taste. I remember that lunch. Johnson kept asking for more," Zakharova told reporters.
