"There was a good atmosphere there (at the summit in Alaska). It is reflected in the statements that the presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump made after the talks. A useful conversation, for sure. It was clear that the leader of the United States and his team sincerely want to achieve a result that will be long-term, sustainable, reliable," Lavrov saidin an interview with the Rossiya-24 TV channel.
"Unlike the Europeans, who at that time were saying on every corner that all that was needed was a ceasefire, and after that they would continue to supply weapons to Ukraine," he added, TASS reported.
On August 15, a meeting between Russian and US Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump took place at the Elmendorf-Richardson military base in Alaska.
