Sergei Lavrov: Mystery with his visit to Beijing – Halfway through the flight he returned to Moscow
"Did Beijing refuse to receive the Russian foreign minister or did Vladimir Putin order him to return to Moscow"
Draft 15-point agreement between Russia & Ukraine
The biggest problem remains Russia's request for Ukraine to recognize the annexation of Crimea & the independence of the two separatist regions in Donbas
Putin: At the beginning of the operation we asked Kyiv to withdraw from Donbas, but they refused
"The presence of our troops near Kyiv does not mean that we want to occupy Ukraine"
