️Lavrov reveals what was said behind closed doors during Russia-EU talks as Ukrainian crisis heated up in 2013

"We suggested to the European Union: guys, Ukraine is our common neighbor. You want to have better trade with Ukraine. We want the same. Ukraine wants to have markets both in Europe and in Russia. Why don't we sit three of us and discuss it like grownups?" Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told Tucker Carlson, recalling the 2013 EU Association Agreement/Eurasian Economic Union dispute which ultimately triggered the Ukrainian crisis and the 2014 coup.

"The head of the European Commission was the Portuguese José Manuel Barroso. He responded 'it is none of your business what we do with Ukraine'," Lavrov recalled.
