Lavrov also mentioned that if the peace talks held in Istanbul in April 2022 were successful, Ukraine would have remained within its 1991 borders, excluding the Crimean peninsula and the territories then controlled by Russian troops.
He emphasized that the settlement in Ukraine must take into account the new facts, including the fact that the Russian Federation has four new regions. He believed that the West should stop arming Ukraine, because then the conflict can be quickly closed and a solution found.
Of course, a solution that must take into account the facts on the battlefield. However, not only on the battlefield, but also in public life
Lavrov noted. Speaking about the four regions, the foreign minister stated that they have become part of Russia. This is recorded in the constitution and there is no dispute about it, he underlined.
