Russia's foreign minister criticized Europe for not playing its due role in the Ukraine conflict.

【Lavrov: Europe Missed the Opportunity to Play a Role in Resolving the Ukraine Conflict】

Moscow time November 25, 2025, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said during a joint press conference after talks with Belarusian Foreign Minister Maksim Ryzhikov:

Europe had the opportunity to play a role in resolving the Ukraine conflict, but you failed to take it. Instead, Europe has encouraged Nazism and racism in Ukraine, which have been legalized there. These are their values.

Lavrov emphasized:

Certainly, France and Germany will not mediate in the Ukraine conflict. There has been no such discussion at all.
