The Kremlin stated on Monday that it seeks an end to the war in Ukraine as soon as possible, but efforts to resolve the crisis have stalled.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov made the remarks in response to a statement by U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday, who said, “I believe we agree that the war will end in the not-too-distant future,” during a meeting with the Hungarian Prime Minister.اضافة اعلان
Peskov reiterated that the Kremlin’s position is that the war can end once Russia achieves its objectives, preferably through political and diplomatic means. He added, “But currently, the situation is at a standstill. This is not due to us,” placing responsibility on Ukraine.
Ukraine and its European allies reject Moscow’s accusations of obstructing peace efforts, and no direct talks between Russia and Ukraine have taken place since July 23.
