The art of diplomacy is relaying messages to your interlocutors in a polite manner, spokesman Dmitry Peskov has explained
The Russian government does not resort to obscene language in contacts with other countries, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.
The Financial Times reported last week that French President Emmanuel Macron’s advisers, Emmanuel Bonne and Bertrand Buchwalter, had secretly visited Moscow in February for a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aide, Yuri Ushakov.
According to an unnamed European diplomat who spoke to the outlet, Macron’s representatives asked for the EU to be included in peace talks between Russia, the US, and Ukraine, but the meeting ended with Ushakov telling the visitors: “Sorry, actually, no we don’t [have to], f**k you’.”
Asked to comment by Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin on Sunday, Peskov replied: “No, none of us ever uses foul language to refer to anyone.”
