Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Thursday that some people in the West were suggesting that Moscow should discuss peace in Ukraine because the United States and its allies had failed to defeat Russian forces in Ukraine.

Nearly two years into Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Moscow controls about 17.5 per cent of Ukrainian territory, and a Ukrainian counter-offensive this year has failed to win any major territorial gains against Russian forces who have defended the front, with extensive minefields and swarms of drones.

Lavrov, in an interview with RIA state news agency and the Rossiya 24 TV channel, said there were signs that the West was changing its tactics and strategy on Ukraine.

"The West is really changing its tactics — maybe even thinking about clarifying the strategy. Because if the 'strategic defeat of Russia' is a strategy, forgive the tautology, then this strategy failed miserably," Lavrov said.
