Moscow's top diplomat accuses Ukraine's Zelensky of only 'pretending' to negotiate to end war, says 'goodwill has its limits'

MOSCOW-Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Monday that peace talks with Ukraine would continue, while warning there was a "real" danger of a World War III.

Speaking to Russian news agencies, he criticized Kiev's approach to the talks, adding: "Goodwill has its limits. But if it isn't reciprocal, that doesn't help the negotiation process.

But we are continuing to engage in negotiations with the team delegated by (Ukrainian President Vololdymyr) Zelensky, and these contacts will go on."

Lavrov accused former actor Zelensky of "pretending" to negotiate. "He's a good actor," he said. But he added: "If you watch attentively and read attentively what he says, you'll find a thousand contradictions."

Given the current tensions, Lavrov said the danger of a World War III was "real".

"The danger is serious, it is real, you can't underestimate it," Lavrov told the Interfax news agency...

World War III or maybe Woke War I either way does not sound good.

.
The people listen to cable news.

They could care less, it’s what Geraldo, CNN, and their News feed tells them.

You cannot tell people the effect this has on the debt, taxes, and the economy. They will only pay attention when Dana Perino tells them to pay attention.

Biden can’t string together two coherent sentences, so who’s in charge?

The Danger is real.

Putin’s dwindling team needs to scare the Russian public, that’s all.

If Russia marches back to their territory, nobody is going to chase them. This is their initiative, they picked this fight. I’m happy to let them be the only participant.

I fully believe the western globalists want WWIII.

I said it from Day1 of the invasion.

The debt load of countries in Europe is no longer feasible.

The great reset needs a complete reset, a common enemy, and a major distraction while they slap the chains on their citizens.

It was weird when I heard Joe Biden criticizing both Russia and China at the “climate change” summit in Glasgow last year for not being on board.

“Climate Change”

isn’t about

“Climate Change”

There is already an EWW3, an economic World War 3, and it is hurting the people of Western countries.

Yep. Ukraine didn’t invade Russia and start attacking.

I doubt they will start an offensive push into Russia since they didnt invade, Russia did.

Countries that are winning don’t whine and complain

so this unscheduled outburst is very revealing of how badly Russia is doing

All Zelensky does is beg and whine and complain, so by that measure, they are losing.

‘goodwill has its limits’

This from the mass murdering bastards who invaded with kill lists of civilians and set up torture chambers for non-combatants and razed whole cities and forcibly deported their populations to Siberia.

Take your “goodwill” Lavrov, and shove it where the Sun don’t shine. There can be only defeat and death for you and yours. You have gone too far to ever re-enter human society. Putin and Lavrov must die for what they have done.

‘goodwill has its limits’

I’d say this is unbelievable but it’s actually happening. The Russians invade a sovereign country and bomb the snot out of them for a month.

Now they want to talk about good will?

**** them.

this trick is pretty much as old as recorded history (older, one assumes). when domestic problems are insurmountable and unavoidable, start a war.

the US has had a very beligerent posture from day 1 (before day 1). no one is calling for negotiations. ukraine takes positions that make good feel-good sound-bites and make zero sense in the real world (like demanding return of crimea).

I can only assume the US/UK sank the moskva, or held a ukrainian hand to push the button. I do not believe ukr. has developed the capability for the attacks on targets inside russia independently either.

but it is a win-win for the US - we want this to escalate and save the democrats from the midterms.

we are so screwed.

It’s amazing how pathetic Russia has performed in this conflict. But before I high five myself too much, I remember Afghanistan just a year ago.
