Russia will not leave Ukraine’s Orthodox believers in hardship and will work to ensure their legitimate rights are respected, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.<\/p>\n
“During a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that Russia supports a just resolution to the Ukrainian crisis,” Lavrov stated.<\/p>\n
Russia’s foreign minister noted that the canonical Orthodox Church has restored its central position in the spiritual life of the Ukrainian people.<\/p>\n
“Russia’s stance is a guarantee of the implementation of the goals for a fair settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, provoked by the West. This stance was reaffirmed once again yesterday by President Putin during his phone call with U.S. President Trump,” Lavrov said.<\/p>\n
He also added that the disregard by Kyiv for initiatives to establish a ceasefire on the occasion of Easter and Victory Day did not surprise anyone in Moscow.<\/p>\n
To remind, the leaders of Russia and the United States had a two-hour phone call yesterday. After the call, Trump stated that Russia is committed to a peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian conflict, a sentiment also expressed by Putin.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
