'I don't care whether West trusts us…': Lavrov as Putin lays out Russia-Ukraine ceasefire conditions
The peace proposals that the President set out are based on conditions that Ukraine must follow. But shouldn't it be Russia that makes the first move here and pulls back it's troops? Russia has been doing everything possible on the basis of deals reached and broken by Boris Johnson and quite a number of other politicians. Frankly, I don't care whether the West trust us or not. The West must understand the real situation. They don't understand anything except real politics. You are democracies, right? Ask the people what the West should do in the response to the Putin's proposals.

I can share in politicians Provo polio, Ukraine signal news of southwest Presidente. Mr. Lavrov, as you know, there will be election in France in a few weeks. Can you tell us how you are monitoring the situation? What do you expect, what you are hoping for? Well, we, we certainly follow political developments in countries where we have ambassadors, where we have embassies. They report about the domestic and international agenda of a given country, just like French, American and other ambassadors report about what is going on in Russia. As for expectations, as far as I'm concerned, for a long time already, I don't expect anything from any place, especially the leading European countries. I am sorry for them. That's, that's what what I can say. Because they, as Putin confirmed today in his speech, they are not independent. And President Macron repeatedly was flagging the slogan of strategic autonomy. Take a look at what is happening in real life, Mr. Leverov, Ivor Bennett from Sky News. The peace proposals that the president set out are based on conditions that Ukraine must follow. But shouldn't it be Russia that makes the first move here and pulls back its troops? Since Russia were the ones you've been listening, you've been listening to the president twice in the middle of his speech. And at the end, he said, I want to repeat the sequence. The speech is going to be circulated. So the sequence is there and I think if you read it for the third time, you would understand that Russia has been doing everything possible on the basis of deals reached and broken by Boris Johnson and quite a number of other politicians. And just a one follow up please, SA, Ukraine does meet these conditions. What's to say Russia stops there? Why should the West trust you? You know, we don't ask the West to trust us. Trust is not something which is illustrating the Western positions, the Western actions. And today there were many examples. I don't want to recite those failures to deliver on the promises, those failure to deliver on the legal obligations. Frankly, I don't care whether the West trust us or not. The West must understand the real situation. They don't understand anything except realpolitik. Let them go to the to the to the people. You are democracies, right? Ask the people what the West should do in response to the Putin's proposals. The Richard's ET atwa pros natiejo slovia Qatari Putin's formula level.
