TRANSCRIPT:
AMANPOUR: "You just touched on the the war on Iran. Do you see any route to a negotiation from your side, from the west side, from President Trump‘s side?"

PAVEL: "I believe that Europe could do much more, but we are not part of it. European countries were blamed not to come to assistance, but how could we when we were not invited at the beginning?"
