A meeting of the foreign ministers of Russia and the did not bring a breakthrough to end the Russian invasion. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said after his meeting with his counterpart Sergei Lavrov in Turkey on Thursday that no agreement had been reached on a ceasefire either. “We cannot end the war if the country that committed the aggression, the invasion, has no desire to do so. I would like to confirm once again that Ukraine has not surrendered and will not surrender. We are at the Diplomacy ready, we are looking for diplomatic solutions. But as long as there are no such solutions, we will do our utmost to defend our country and our people against Russian aggression.” Lavrov reiterated Russia’s demand that Ukraine should not become a NATO member and must be demilitarized so that the country would not pose a threat to Russia. Russia also never wants to be dependent on the West and Western companies again. Russia itself has never threatened sanctions in the energy sector and has its own oil and gas markets, Lavrov said. Russian President Putin would not refuse to meet Ukrainian President Zelenskyy either. Such a meeting must be well prepared and substantial. Both sides expressed their willingness to continue talks.
