Lavrov commented on the leaked data on the meeting between Naryshkin and Burns in Turkey

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the Americans were the initiators of a data leak about a communication channel between the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service and the director of the CIA.

This was part of Lavrov’s statements at a press conference he held in Moscow today, Thursday, on European security issues, where the minister continued that the United States of America was the one who insisted on the confidentiality of the communication channel between CIA director William Burns and the head Sergey Naryshkin’s Russian foreign intelligence services, unless the leaks started then.

He said: “The American colleagues offered to hold a meeting between Burns and Naryshkin, and we agreed to this. The Americans themselves have told us ten times that this channel should be top secret and should not be made public, so that no one knows anything, as long as it is not a serious channel and is not subject to any publicity. “Foreign affairs and machinations with the media. We agreed, but as soon as the officials arrived in Ankara, the news immediately leaked out. White House. From the State Department. I dont know. But the news got out.”
