Russia will hear proposals from Trump’s envoys, but there will be no political concessions – Lavrov
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Russia would see what US presidential special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner propose, but there would be no political concessions.
Russian state propaganda news agencies quoted his statement, Censor.NET reports.
Rejection of political concessions
Lavrov said Russia was ready for economic deals, but without political concessions.
He also said the Russian authorities did not expect "any miracles" from US President Donald Trump’s administration on sanctions.
Lavrov added that there should be no enthusiasm over Trump’s decision not to apply the sanctions law: "Another president will come along — who knows how they will behave."
New terms for relations with the West after 2022
