March 2 (Reuters) - Influential Russian parliamentarians dismissed a summit of European leaders in London on Sunday, saying it had produced no plan to settle the war in Ukraine.
Konstantin Kosachev, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said the only thing Ukraine could count on was an improvement in Russian-U.S. ties.
He derided the outcome of the London meeting as “a desperate attempt to pass off as success the failure of a 10-year policy of inciting Ukraine towards Russia by the same Great Britain and, until recently, the United States”.
“Europe has no plan,” wrote Kosachev, head of the Foreign Affairs Committee of Russia’s upper house of parliament.
“And if Ukraine should count on something, it can only be on progress (if there is any to come) in Russian-American relations.”
He said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who hosted the meeting, “cannot fail to understand this”.
