Sergei Lavrov accused Volodymyr Zelensky of lack of seriousness in his political activities,[/B] in statements made on Saturday, as he said his words differ from his actions.

"When, to my great regret, President Zelensky declares that he cannot be a Nazi when he is of Jewish origin and says this precisely on the days when Ukraine is defiantly withdrawing from the agreement on the protection of monuments to the heroes of the Great Patriotic War, then it is simply difficult for me to take the policy of the Ukrainian leadership seriously," the Russian foreign minister said, according to RIA Novosti.

According to Lavrov, Zelensky's words often deviate from his actions, adding that the Ukrainian side started negotiations, in fact, thinking in terms of "serving numbers." "Nevertheless, we continue negotiations, we have reached a certain point, although we understand that the US is holding the hand and guiding the Ukrainians, not allowing them to reach an agreement, even on the minimum requirements," he added.

"The military operation will end, I hope, with the signing of comprehensive documents on the issues we have mentioned: security issues and the neutral status of Ukraine with guarantees for its security," Lavrov continued.

In relation to Moscow's international contacts, Lavrov said that "we continue to be open to cooperation with any countries, including Western ones. Since, of course, the West has treated us in this way, we are not going to take initiatives Let's see how to get out of the deadlock they have been led to."
