According to Zakharova, this was done “in order to kind of build… muscle on the international track during their election campaign.”
She added that after a brief conversation between the heads of departments, the Russian Foreign Ministry saw a “media bacchanalia” in the American media.
Zakharova called a “saga” and a “song” the story of Blinken and the State Department of how the US Secretary of State almost held negotiations with Lavrov, “almost multi-format, and disarmament in addition”.
At the same time, the diplomat noted that the current US administration has “no achievement”, with Russia’s isolation “once again being reviewed” and all that remains is “a bit of a mess this that they do”.
