According to the Foreign Ministry, the United States, Great Britain, France and Germany cannot claim the role of neutral mediators in the peace process in Ukraine, since they are involved in a conflict with Russia.

“Officially, we do not know anything about this initiative. Nevertheless, Ischinger’s idea raises legitimate questions. First of all, because all the four countries mentioned are themselves parties to the conflict with Russia, which continues on the territory of Ukraine,” the Foreign Ministry said.

The Foreign Ministry believes that they are supplying weapons to Ukraine and sending mercenaries there, supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine with intelligence and training Ukrainian soldiers. In addition, they have imposed sanctions on Russia, blocked its foreign assets, demanded a tribunal to punish its leadership, and blackmailed its friends into forbidding them from cooperating with Moscow.

“These countries support Zelensky’s pseudo-peace initiatives, which are ultimatum demands for the surrender of our country, divorced from reality,” the agency’s interlocutors emphasized.

“With such approaches, the United States, Great Britain, France and Germany cannot claim the role of neutral mediators launching the peace process. They are not interested in resolving the crisis and are doing everything to prolong the confrontation as much as possible,” the Foreign Ministry added.
