British foreign secretary badly briefed on geography

It is reported that Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov asked British foreign secretary Liz Truss on her visit to Moscow on Thursday if she accepted his country’s sovereignty over Rostov and Voronezh.

She is said to have replied that she did not and never would.

Every schoolgirl/boy knows that Rostov and Voronezh are Russian regions.

Later talking to Russian media Ms Truss said: “It seemed to me that minister Lavrov was talking about a part of Ukraine."
