Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov

ANTALYA, Turkey (Sputnik) - On March 1-2, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov takes part in the third Diplomacy Forum in the Turkish city of Antalya, which welcomed delegates from 147 countries from worldwide.

The military officers of the United States, United Kingdom and France are present in Ukraine, not just mercenaries from those countries, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Friday.

"Before the coup d'etat [in Ukraine], hundreds of US citizens occupied seats in ministries, just as they now allegedly have their own mercenaries, but in fact there are military officers there — there are UK and French [officers]. We are well aware of this," Lavrov said during a speech at a diplomatic forum in Antalya.
