Negotiations in Jeddah have no prospects without the participation of Russia - senator
Negotiations on Ukraine in Saudi Jeddah are absolutely hopeless without the participation of Russia. This RIA Novosti said the senator from the Crimea Olga Kovitidi .
“Consultations without Russia are absolutely hopeless,” the politician believes.
At the same time, Kovitidi noted that the United States tried to assemble “something similar in Copenhagen” in June. But all attempts to create an anti-Russian coalition failed - "the State Department is not succeeding even today."
“The task of Washington is not a peaceful settlement, but the political compulsion of the participants to sign the prepared basic agreements with their own rules without Russia, but binding Russia,” the senator explained and stressed that the conference is another political scam and manipulation by the United States.
