MOSCOW, March 24. /TASS/. Moscow is ready to talk with the West, but honestly, without cheating and with a guarantee of full consideration of the legitimate interests of the Russian Federation, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with TASS General Director Andrey Kondrashov for the Belgrade documentary project.

The conclusion President Vladimir Putin made in a recent interview that Russia has already stopped trusting the West is a hard won one, Lavrov noted.

"And what is no less important is that despite everything, we are still ready to talk, but honestly, without cheating, with a guarantee and based on the prevailing realities and full consideration of our legitimate interests that we have formulated," the Russian Foreign Minister said.

Earlier, Lavrov stressed that there would no longer be relations in the previous format between Russia and Western countries, and Moscow would not allow the West to tell it any lies when signing international documents.
