OREANDA-NEWS  The Polish authorities denied Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov the opportunity to participate in the 29th meeting of the OSCE Council of Foreign Ministers (CFM), as they consider it necessary to "isolate Russia as much as possible." This was stated on Monday on Polish television by the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland Pavel Jablonski.

"Now, in our opinion, Russia should be absolutely, as isolated as possible on all international platforms. Hence this decision," he commented on the refusal to Lavrov.

According to Yablonsky, "this is a meeting of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, that is, countries for which it is important that Europe be safe." "And Russia is countering this. She has completely opposite interests with the whole organization," he believes.
