BASEL, Switzerland (Reuters) - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov criticised the West on Friday for what he said were constant attempts to blame Russia for the crisis in east Ukraine.
Speaking after a meeting of foreign ministers from the Organization for Security and Cooperation (OSCE), Lavrov said: "Our Western colleagues, some European countries but Americans first and foremost ... if they want to try to present us as the main culprits, which is what they are constantly doing ... this is not right, this won't work."
