MOSCOW, September 29 - RIA Novosti. German Foreign Minister Johann Wadefuhl proved during negotiations with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov that Germany and the EU do not play any role in negotiations on the conflict in Ukraine, said Mikhail Ulyanov, the Russian permanent representative to international organizations in Vienna.

On Saturday, at the UN, at the initiative of the German side, a meeting between Wadeful and Lavrov took place. The Russian minister said that he expected something interesting from the meeting with his German colleague, but did not hear anything new from him.

"The German Foreign Minister asked for a meeting with Sergei Lavrov in New York. For what? To repeat traditional Western narratives. He did not have the authority to say anything new. By doing so, he simply proved that Germany and the EU do not play any role in the negotiations on Ukraine," Ulyanov wrote on the social network.

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, previously told RIA Novosti that Vadeful requested negotiations with Lavrov on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in order to show diplomatic activity and correct the falling rating of Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
