Lavrov: Russia does not see the West’s goodwill for a peaceful settlement in Ukraine. “We see a lack of goodwill on that side.
Not even so much goodwill,” he stated. Lavrov added that the West is still trying to achieve Russia's defeat on the battlefield. The diplomat said this during a press conference following the diplomatic forum in Antalya, Russia's second largest city after St. Petersburg. The minister said that Russia has never refused a diplomatic settlement of the situation with Ukraine.
