Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov praised the outfit of a journalist who asked about the grain agreement
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov did not answer the question of whether the grain agreement is “dead”.
After the end of the first part of the Council meeting At the Security Council of the United Nations, chaired by the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry, he met with the organization's Secretary General António Guterres.
Gradually, a Reuters journalist asked the Russian minister to comment on the status of the so-called grain agreement. In response, Lavrov praised the correspondent's outfit.
“Nice dress,” he said.
Earlier, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said extending the grain agreement was impossible without honoring the terms of the agreement. The current contract expires on May 18.
