Russia has stated that it was attempting to exacerbate the situation and had observed that the circle of US president-elect Donald Trump was discussing a possible peace plan for Ukraine, while the existing US government led by Joe Biden was not, reports RTE.
After being asked to comment on an interview that Mr. Trump’s choice for national security advisor, Mike Waltz, gave to Fox News yesterday, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov offered his comments.
Mr. Waltz stated that the battle had to be brought “to a responsible end” and that Mr. Trump had been “very concerned” about combat between Russia and Ukraine being worse, reports RTE.
Mr. Waltz pointed out that North Korea and Iran were involved in the conflict, that Russia had used a hypersonic ballistic missile against Ukraine, that some Western nations had allowed Ukraine to fire its missiles deep into Russia, and that South Korea was thinking about joining the fray.
According to Mr. Peskov, President Vladimir Putin has said time and again that Russia is prepared to engage in conversation over Ukraine, and the Kremlin has taken notice of the remarks.
In order to begin peace negotiations, Mr. Putin stated in June that Ukraine must give up its aspirations to join NATO and turn over all four of the provinces that Moscow claims, reports RTE.
