Because of Kyiv's position: the military path of end of war remains a priority for the Russian Federation - Peskov
He said this on February 28, reports "RIA Novosti". Asked by journalists about how favorable the conditions for peace talks with Ukraine, Peskov said that "no one can state any signals from the Ukrainian side now. " "So far, we are coming out of the impossibility of de jure for the Ukrainian side to negotiate," he said. The Kremlin representative also declared new "internal realities" for Russia.
According to him, the annexation of Kherson, Zaporizhia, Donetsk and Luhansk regions is enshrined in the Russian Constitution. Therefore, in the issue of returning these territories to Ukraine, Moscow does not intend to yield. "Of course, in the favorable state of affairs and with the appropriate attitude of the Ukrainian regime, this can be decided at the table of negotiations," Peskov said.
We will remind, Dmitry Peskov also reported Russia's readiness to negotiate with Germany and France on war in Ukraine. According to him, Berlin and Paris have not yet come into contact for "finding ways to get out of the situation", although many times have promised another. On February 27, Bild reported that they want to increase pressure on Ukraine in the West to start negotiations with the Russian Federation.
