MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russia said on Wednesday that attempts to resolve security issues relating to Ukraine without the participation of Moscow was a "road to nowhere".
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov made the comments two days after U.S. President Donald Trump hosted Ukraine's president and European leaders for discussions about security guarantees for Ukraine that could help to end the war.
