Spokesman for the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov stated that it is possible to continue negotiations with Ukraine in order to achieve the goals of hostilities as soon as possible and to cease hostilities. Ukrainskaya Pravda informed.

“We would be happy to continue negotiations in Belarus. But the Ukrainians do not want this. For some reason, this is either inconvenient or inconvenient for them, or for some other reason. But, you see, the main thing is to find the place where we are we agree with the Ukrainian negotiators.

And most importantly, that they continue. Though in Istanbul, though where. But the main thing is to continue. Because in the end, everyone wants the goals of the military operation (the war against Ukraine – ed.) to be achieved as soon as possible and these hostilities stop. This is possible through these peace talks. Although they are not easy,” Peskov said.

Peskov also said that the so-called “demilitarization” of Ukraine is “in full swing”, and the military infrastructure of our country has been largely destroyed, which is one of the important goals of the war.

The Kremlin spokesman also hopes that the mythical “nationalist leanings” in Ukraine will begin to die out.

It should be reminded that early in the morning of 24 February, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the launch of a special military operation in Ukraine, aimed at ensuring the security of the Donetsk and Luhansk republics, as well as removing the “Nazi regime” in Ukraine.

The United States and the European Union have described Russia’s move as a direct aggression by Russia against Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.

The Verkhovna Rada has declared martial law in Ukraine.
