Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that the European Union is the main obstacle to achieving peace in Ukraine.
In an interview with Russian state media agency TASS, Lavrov said the EU is not hiding the fact that it is preparing to fight Russia on the battlefield.
"We see that the Zelensky regime and its European curators are not ready to engage in constructive talks ," he said, adding that the Kremlin appreciates the efforts of United States President Donald Trump and his team to reach a peace settlement.
Lavrov's comments were published as Zelensky traveled to Florida to meet with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate to resume talks on proposals to end the conflict with Russia.
Later Sunday, Trump said on social media that he just had a good and very productive phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of his meeting with the Ukrainian leader. Trump did not provide details about the call.
The Trump-Zelenskyy meeting comes after weeks of negotiations by envoys from the US, Ukraine and Russia, since the US president proposed a 28-point peace plan in November. The proposal has been revised to 20 points, with Zelenskyy presenting the details to reporters in Kiev last week.
