In these negotiations, you can stop or at least attempt to stop this crime, so let's have a serious talk.’ If he is in the mood for a serious conversation, then we, as a diplomat, will have a serious talk. If he starts repeating the same absurd propaganda that has been being distributed lately, he will hear from me the harsh truth that he deserves," Kuleba said.
