Russia Ready To Talk If Ukraine Army Lays Down Arms: Foreign Minister

163

Moscow: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Friday that the country would be ready to hold talks with Kyiv, but only once Ukraine’s military had laid down its arms.

He also said that Moscow did not want “neo-Nazis” to govern Ukraine.

Russia said today it expects support from India at the UN Security Council when the global body takes up a crucial resolution on the Russian military operation in Ukraine.

Ukraine’s army said Friday it was fighting invading Russian forces northwest of the capital Kyiv, as Moscow pressed on with its advance on the pro-Western country for a second day.

“Airborne assault troops of the Ukrainian armed forces are fighting in the areas of the settlements of Dymer and Invankiv,” Kyiv’s army said on its Facebook page.
