Russia's Lavrov: I am ready to meet Rubio
- On Nov. 9, Sergey Lavrov, Russia's Foreign Minister, told RIA Novosti he and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio maintain contact and are ready for in-person talks on the Ukraine issue.
- Media outlets recently reported Washington cancelled a planned summit after Lavrov's ministry signalled it would not soften demands over Ukraine, following his Oct. 21 call with Rubio about Budapest terms.
- On the territorial issue, Sergey Lavrov defended Crimea's status, saying ending the conflict is impossible without addressing Russia's 'root causes' and that the 2014 referendum settled Crimea and Sevastopol's sovereignty.
- Some reports said Lavrov's influence waned after his Rubio talks, but the Kremlin denied those speculations even as Lavrov missed a Nov. 5 meeting chaired by Vladimir Putin.
- Against that backdrop, international reports found the 2014 Crimea referendum results were falsified, contradicting Moscow's account as Sergey Lavrov remains central through his UN General Assembly, New York role.
