We must acknowledge the reality: the Central Directorate responded to Lavrov's statement.

Russia increasingly shows its unwillingness to end the war, as evidenced by the words of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

This was reported by RBK-Ukraine, citing the head of the Center for Counteracting Disinformation, Andrey Kovalenko, on Telegram.

In particular, he mentioned Lavrov's recent statement indicating that Russia is not satisfied with the proposals from the team of newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump. This includes a 20-year delay for Ukraine's NATO membership and the introduction of a peacekeeping contingent from the EU and the UK.

"I can add that Russia increasingly demonstrates its unwillingness to end the war even in theory," Kovalenko writes.

He noted that it is necessary to acknowledge the reality - Russia must be weakened by "cutting off" its allies, as well as through the intensive destruction of Russian military logistics.

"When the economy and the defense industry collapse, it will no longer matter what Putin and his dogs like Lavrov want. For now, this is the traditional Russian tactic of multiplying nonsense to buy time," the head of the CPD concluded.

Recall that Lavrov expressed Russia's disagreement in an interview with TASS.

"Of course, we are not satisfied with the proposals voiced on behalf of the representatives of the elected president's team to postpone Ukrainian NATO membership for 20 years, as well as to introduce a peacekeeping contingent into Ukraine," he said.

At the same time, the Russian Foreign Minister admitted that Moscow has not yet received any official signals from the United States regarding the war in Ukraine.
