The Italian peace plan for Ukraine is
"not serious", Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said
Thursday.
Italy's four-stage plan would feature a ceasefire, talks on
Ukraine's 'international status', i.e. whether it is neutral, a
bilateral agreement between Kyiv and Moscow on the contested
areas of Crimea and Donbass, and a multilateral agreement on
peace and security in Europe.
"Serious politicians who want to achieve results and are not
engaged in self-promotion for their electorate cannot propose
this kind of thing," Lavrov told Russia Today.
Lavrov reiterated that Italy has not sent the plan to Moscow but
"what appears in the media provokes a feeling of sorrow".
He appeared to be referring to the idea of the Donbass and
Crimea being under Ukrainian sovereignty with an autonomous
status, Moscow watchers said.
