Then, as always, the circus began: Zakharova comments on the course of negotiations

Russia was prepared for Ukraine to exhibit inconsistent behavior during the negotiations. This was stated on Wednesday by Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

“A request was made to hold negotiations by a person who is called the President of Ukraine and endowed with the appropriate powers, and Russia did not reject that request. Then, as always, the circus began, literally and figuratively, from the Kyiv regime—first they come, then they don't come, sometimes they participate, sometimes they don't participate. Was Moscow ready for this? Yes, of course,” Zakharova said in an interview with Rossiya-24.
