“Also according to Peskov, Ukraine should be interested in negotiations”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
“Readiness must be based on something, readiness and desire, it cannot be based on the legislative prohibition of such negotiations for Zelensky. Therefore, it is impossible to perceive it as empty words, ”Peskov told reporters at a press conference on February 5.
He reported that Russia and the United States were dialogue along the line of individual agencies, and that these contacts have intensified.
“I can only say here here: contacts on the lines of individual agencies are indeed, and lately they have intensified. But I can’t tell you any other details, ”Peskov said, asking why US President Donald Trump is active in contact with Putin, and the Kremlin declares the absence of signals from the US administration.
Also, according to Peskov, Ukraine should be interested in negotiations.
«Dynamics and course of special operation (Special Military Operation – So Russian authorities call the war of Russia against Ukraine – ed.) indicates that, first of all, the interest in the negotiations should leave Kiev, ”Putin spokesman said.
Earlier, Putin said he was ready for peace talks and meetings with US President Donald Trump. He also argued that if peace talks begin within the current legal field, they will be illegitimate through Ukrainian legislation, which forbids Zelensky to conduct direct negotiations with Putin.
In an interview with British journalist Pierce Morgan, which was published on February 4, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that he was ready to participate in peace talks at one table with Russian President Vladimir Putin “If it is the only option for which we can bring peace to Ukrainian citizens” .
On February 4, US President Donald Trump said his administration was “very constructive negotiations on Ukraine” and assured that he would “do everything” to stop the war.
“We talk to the Russians, talk to the Ukrainian leadership,” Trump says. “We are now doing this topic. We have very good negotiations, very constructive negotiations on Ukraine. ”
According to the American Institute of War Study, Putin repeated on January 20 that the Kremlin was ready to negotiate with the United States on the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, but made it clear that it retains its requirements for the full surrender of Ukraine.
