Foreign Minister Lavrov was surprised by the behavior of the NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg on the question of the meeting of the Council Russia-NATO. In Warsaw he said that first it was necessary to discuss this question with Russia, and then to go to the microphone and tell their fantasies publicly.

“Why would he say that? The Council Russia-NATO works on a consensus basis. If they want to discuss it, let them negotiate with us and not go to the microphone,” — said the Russian Minister.
At the same time Moscow has said that Moscow has never shied away from communication with the North Atlantic Alliance.
Stoltenberg said that the decision to hold a meeting of the Council Russia — NATO was taken at the dinner, which was attended by the foreign Ministers of the Alliance 19 may.
Russian permanent representative to NATO Alexander Grushko said that “the sides have a deep contradiction, and negotiations are unable to change this”. At the same time, the NATO Secretary General considered incorrect Russia’s desire to present the situation in Eastern Ukraine as a civil war. And the Crimean question remained indifferent. Stoltenberg said that all NATO members will not recognize the annexation of Crimea to Russia, which is actually not surprising.
After the meeting, the permanent Representative of Russia to NATO Alexander Grushko, stressed that while there has been no progress in relations between NATO and Russia.
Lavrov done. If he says something on the matter and straight in the eye. If you want to say, you need not to wriggle but to tell the truth and to solve the problem and not beat on the sly, as they like to make the last Americans. It’s despicable, but they used to do it. The audacity — the second happiness, as they say people.
