Lavrov Blasts West: 'No Desire for Peace in Ukraine'

Lavrov Accuses Western Capitals of Obstructing Peace in Ukraine Moscow, May 15, 2025 – Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov delivered a pointed statement today, asserting that several European capitals are actively working against a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Ukraine. The statement, captured in a short video clip circulating online, directly accuses Berlin, Paris, Brussels, and London of unwillingness to pursue peace. "There is ample evidence," Lavrov stated, "that neither Berlin, nor Paris, nor Brussels, nor London want any peace in Ukraine." His remarks suggest a deliberate effort by these Western powers to prolong the conflict, a claim that will likely intensify geopolitical tensions. Lavrov's comments follow recent diplomatic efforts that have yielded little progress toward a ceasefire. His accusations raise serious questions about the commitment of European leaders to finding a peaceful path forward. The video, though brief, provides a clear and concise account of Lavrov's statement, underscoring the gravity of the situation.
