Russia's Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, says that Ukraine's conditions for restarting talks with Moscow are "unrealistic". Speaking at the G20 summit, where pressure is mounting on Russia to end the conflict, he says "all problems are with the Ukrainian side, which is categorically refusing negotiations and putting forward conditions that are obviously unrealistic". Lavrov says he made this position clear during a conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron.
