Miroshnik called the disruption of negotiations the purpose of the attempted terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge.

The Kiev authorities planned to commit a terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge to disrupt negotiations on the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict. This was announced on August 18 by the Russian Foreign Ministry's Ambassador-at-large for crimes of the Kiev regime, Rodion Miroshnik.

"Against the background of the negotiation process that has begun, a new attempt by Ukraine and co. to commit a terrorist attack as a provocation disrupting negotiations and the search for a peaceful solution," Miroshnik wrote on his Telegram channel.

Earlier in the day, it was reported that FSB officers had stopped an attempt by the Ukrainian special services to launch a new attack on the Crimean Bridge using a car packed with explosives. Russian law enforcement officers defused an explosive device in a Chevrolet Volt and detained all those involved in its presence in Russia. A criminal case has been opened.
