"Ukraine has
publicly withdrawn
from them (the Minsk agreements. -
RT
), and instead of giving Ukraine a hand ... we are told, let's get together again in the Normandy format," Lavrov said at a joint press conference with his Lebanese colleague Abdullah Buhabib.
The event was broadcast by RT.
The head of the Russian foreign policy department called this state of affairs a road to nowhere and noted concern over the stubbornness with which Berlin and Paris do not want to support the implementation of the Minsk agreements.
"(They. -

) want to shield and justify the unacceptable actions of the Kiev regime in every possible way," Lavrov added.
As the Russian president noted earlier, Ukraine demonstratively fails to comply with the Minsk agreements, and therefore the crisis in Ukraine is “far from being resolved”.
In early September, Kiev announced that Ukraine had managed to get off the hook of the Minsk agreements.
