Ukrainian Premier Arseniy Yatseniuk has said he's not pinning great hopes on the quadrilateral meeting in Geneva as he is sure that Russia has a goal of continuing to destabilize the situation in Ukraine.
"I am not overly hopeful about this meeting since I don't believe the Russian side… Now Russia is playing just one game: further aggravation, the further seizure of territory and further provocations," he told journalists in Kyiv.
According to Yatseniuk, the aim of the Russian leadership is to disrupt the presidential elections in Ukraine.
