Some delegations at the OSCE foreign ministers summit in Skopje left the room as Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov began his address on Thursday (November 30). Lavrov’s invitation to the summit faced backlash from some countries boycotting the event and Bulgaria prevented the Russian foreign minister from flying over its territory on his way to Skopje. Lavrov told the meeting that the OSCE was on the brink of a precipice and that the West was killing the chances of reviving the group.
