Great Power contentions

[Furunculus]

Nonsense, your own quote shows it:

Truss - The British Foreign Secretary told the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry about the need to withdraw Russian armed forces from the Ukrainian border.
[talking about little green men in Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea]

Lavrov - Sergei Lavrov replied that the military is on the territory of his country.
[pretending there aren't any little green men in Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea]

Truss - Liz Truss repeated that they should be withdrawn.
[still talking about little green men in Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea]

Lavrov - To this, the Russian minister again objected that the military is not violating anything, since they have the right to conduct any maneuvers on the territory of the Russian Federation.
[attempting to shift the conversation as if we have all accepted "that [all] the military is on the territory of his country."]

Lavrov - After that, he himself addressed a question to his British colleague: “Do you recognize the sovereignty of Russia over the Rostov and Voronezh regions?”
[pretending that we have all accepted that russia's military isn't sitting inside others peoples borders, asks: why do you object if our military is inside our border?]

Truss - “Great Britain will never recognize Russian sovereignty over these regions,” the Foreign Minister replied after a short pause.
[refusing to accept the premise - continues with the understanding we all share: that there are little green men in Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea]

No. I think i prefer the quoted tweets above, thank you.
