He said that he may hold a meeting with Putin in Istanbul, Turkey. The place of negotiation is not important. What matters is the final result. "We need to try to reach a consensus on some things.". —— Hungarian prime minister Orban said on the 6th that when he talked with Putin on the phone that day, he suggested that Putin immediately declare a ceasefire and invite Putin, the presidents of Ukraine and France and the German prime minister to Budapest for a meeting.

The EU should take full responsibility for the consequences of this destructive act. —— Zaharova said at a press conference on the 6th that the proposal to suspend Russia's membership in the UN Human Rights Council is part of the anti Russian activities of the United States and its allies.
