Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that Russia would not fall into the trap.
According to a report by the Russian Sputnik News Agency on April 15, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that the Russian side was clear about how to sign an agreement with US President Trump without falling into a trap.
Although US President Trump stated after taking office that he would end the Ukraine-Russia conflict through negotiations, it was obviously for the purpose of achieving his own goals and not serving Russia's interests. Russia naturally understood the US purpose and would not be deceived. For the 30-day temporary ceasefire proposal put forward by the United States and Ukraine, Russia did not agree and proposed its own conditions, which eventually came to nothing. Russia is now using negotiations with the United States to drive a wedge between European countries and the United States, achieving very good results. Lavrov has served as the Russian Foreign Minister for 21 years and is a master in diplomacy. He immediately saw this as a trap. Russia has the ability and wisdom to achieve its own goals.
