According to him, "Moscow did not impose" negotiations on anyone, and their resumption "is not priority number one for Russia."
At the same time, Lavrov noted that Russia "positively perceives the possibility of resuming negotiations in Istanbul."
It is worth reminding that the negotiation process involving the US stopped at the end of February. Another round was supposed to take place in Abu Dhabi in early March, but it was canceled due to the situation around Iran and has not been resumed since.
