Ukrainian opposition must be represented at Geneva consultations - Lavrov

VIENNA. May 6 (Interfax) - The new meeting in Geneva is "unlikely to add anything" in the absence of the forces opposed to the current regime in Kyiv, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

"Getting together again in the same format, with the opposition to the current Ukrainian regime being absent at the table of negotiations, is unlikely to add anything. It is possible of course, but we shall be going in circles and saying again that everything we have agreed upon must be complied with," Lavrov told reporters after a session of the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers.
