Russia Questions U.S. Role in Ukrainian Attacks and Seeks Response

Russia Questions U.S. Role in Ukrainian Attacks and Seeks ResponsePreviousNext

Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the United States of deep involvement in Ukrainian attacks against Russia, including providing intelligence support. Russia has submitted questions to the U.S. State Department seeking comment but has not received a response. Lavrov cited a past summit where President Putin expressed willingness to consider U.S. peace proposals and indicated openness to receiving envoys again. The U.S. has denied any agreement was reached, and no peace talks have occurred since February amid ongoing conflict.
