Question: Is this your first time in Alaska?
Sergey Lavrov: I've been here before.
Question: President of the United States Donald Trump has said that there is a 25 percent chance the talks will not be successful. What is Russia's estimate?
Sergey Lavrov: We never try to anticipate the outcome or make any guesses. What we do know, however, is that we have arguments we can contribute to the discussion and that our position is clear. We will present it.
In fact, much has been accomplished already during the visits by the US President's Special Envoy, Steve Witkoff. President Vladimir Putin has mentioned this fact. Steve Witkoff spoke on behalf of President Donald Trump. I hope that we will be able to continue this productive conversation tomorrow.
Question: Do you feel nervous?
Sergey Lavrov: What's that?
