LONDON (Reuters) – British foreign minister Truss said on Monday that she had delivered a tough message to Moscow last week over Ukraine, when asked how her meetings with Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov had gone.
“Of course the Russians didn’t like what I had to say, but I say it nevertheless, and I want them to desist, and I want them to be aware that there will be a severe cost of an invasion,” Truss told reporters after chairing a meeting of the government’s crisis response committee.
