He also said the US was “working intensely every single day” to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza.
VIENTIANE - US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on July 27 during a regional summit in Laos, hours after criticising Beijing’s “escalating and unlawful actions” in the South China Sea.
Mr Blinken and Mr Wang attended July 27’s security-focused Asean Regional Forum in Laos, which will be attended by top diplomats of major powers including Russia, Australia, Japan, Britain and others, before heading to their meeting. Israeli officials estimate that some 14,000 fighters from militant groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, have been killed or taken prisoner, out of a force they estimated to number more than 25,000 at the start of the war.
Mr Lavrov, according to South Korean news agency Yonhap, said he had not been briefed on the details of the plan, which was of concern to Russia. The junta has largely ignored the Asean-promoted peace effort, and the 10-member bloc, of which Myanmar is a member, has hit a wall as all sides refuse to enter into dialogue.
