Kyiv Independent: No result for Foreign Minister talks. Ukraine foreign minister press conference.

Last edited Thu Mar 10, 2022, 09:10 AM - Edit history (1)

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba met with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov on March 10 in Turkey, in an attempt to broker a 24-hour ceasefire and a humanitarian corridor to the southern port city of Mariupol, encircled by Russian troops.

According to Kuleba, no results were reached since Lavrov didn’t have the mandate to sign any agreements.

“I came here with a humanitarian purpose, to walk out of the meeting with a decision to arrange a humanitarian corridor to and from Mariupol,” Kuleba said, adding that they didn’t reach an agreement with Lavrov.

Kuleba said he is ready to meet again “if there will be prospects to a solution.”

Interesting to get the Ukraine perspective. A hint the talks would fail happened last night when TASS took down five stories about the peace talksand put up one that said not to expect anything to happen quickly

And if you're curious, I did once have a job interview with the CIA. They were interested in me for a position that involved reading everything.
