If the USA and The EU will wash its hands, Russia will deal with the conflict faster — Medvedev

If the United States and the European Union do not interfere in the Ukrainian conflict, Russia will deal with it faster. This was stated in the social network by the deputy chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev.

This is how he commented on today's statements by US President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Mark Rubio that the United States may step down from its role as a mediator in resolving the Ukrainian crisis.

"American officials said: if there is no progress in the Ukrainian case, the United States will wash its hands. Wise. And the EU should do the same. Then Russia will figure it out faster," writes Medvedev, quoted by Pool No. 3.

As reported by EADaily, the United States will withdraw from negotiations on the Ukrainian conflict if Moscow and Kiev complicate the termination of the war. This was stated today at a briefing at the White House by US President Donald Trump. The head of the State Department Marco Rubio informed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte about the same, his department said.
