He said that Russia had previously targeted government buildings in Kyiv.<\/p>\n
Zelensky added on X: “It is critical that the world doesn’t stay silent now. We cannot allow Russia to undermine the work on achieving a lasting peace.”<\/p>\n
In a statement shared on Telegram on Monday, Lavrov said all of the 91 drones he claimed were launched at Putin’s residence were intercepted and destroyed by Russian air defence systems.<\/p>\n
He added that there were no reports of casualties or damage as a result of the attack.<\/p>\n
“Given the final degeneration of the criminal Kyiv regime, which has switched to a policy of state terrorism, Russia’s negotiating position will be revised,” he said.<\/p>\n
But he added that Russia does not intend to exit the negotiating process with the US, Russian news agency Tass reported.<\/p>\n
The claim by Moscow comes after talks between the US and Ukraine in Florida on Sunday, where Presidents Trump and Zelensky discussed a revised peace plan to end the war.<\/p>\n
Zelensky said the US had offered Ukraine security guarantees for 15 years, and Trump said an agreement on this point was “close to 95%” done.<\/p>\n
Ukraine’s leader described territorial issues and the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant as the last unresolved matters, and there was little sign of progress on the future of Ukraine’s contested Donbas region – which Russia wants to seize in full.<\/p>\n
Moscow currently controls about 75% of the Donetsk region, and some 99% of the neighbouring Luhansk. The two regions are known collectively as Donbas.<\/p>\n
Russia has previously rejected key parts of the plan under discussion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"He said that Russia had previously targeted government buildings in Kyiv.
