Russia's Lavrov: Either Ukraine fulfils Moscow's proposals or our army will decide

Moscow's proposals for "demilitarisation" and "denazification" of Ukraine are well known to Kyiv and it is up to Ukrainian authorities to fulfil them, otherwise, the Russian army will decide the issue, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said, per Reuters.

Key quotes

Our proposals for the demilitarization and denazification of the territories controlled by the regime, the elimination of threats to Russia's security emanating from there, including our new lands, are well known to the enemy.

The point is simple: Fulfil them for your own good. Otherwise, the issue will be decided by the Russian army.

Market reaction

The news fails to gain any major attention amid the year-end holiday season. That said, the risk barometer pair AUD/USD remains mildly bid around 0.6725 by the press time.
