(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 26 - "Serious politicians who want to get results and are not engaged in self-promotion in front of their electorate, cannot propose this kind of thing".
This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Serghei Lavrov, commenting in an interview with Russia Today in Arabic about the Italian peace proposals for Ukraine.
The broadcaster posted a transcript in Russian on its website.
Lavrov reiterated that the Italian did not send the plan to Moscow, but "what appears in the media - he added, referring in particular to the hypothesis of Donbasse Crimea under Ukrainian sovereignty with an autonomous status - provokes a feeling of regret".
