“Russia Must Be Absolutely Isolated”: Lavrov Denied Participation in OSCE Council Meeting

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has been denied participation in the OSCE Council of Foreign Ministers meeting held in Poland. This information has been confirmed by the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“In our opinion, Russia must be as absolutely isolated as possible on all international platforms. This is the reason for such a decision. This is a meeting of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, which includes countries for whom security in Europe is important, and Russia is countering that,” stated Polish Deputy Foreign Minister Pawel Jablonski in a broadcast on Polish television.
