Dmitry Peskov talked about the latest developments that exist about the possibility of sitting
The Kremlin spokesman stressed that the priority is to keep them. “The main thing at present is to maintain the process of direct Russia-Ukraine negotiations. There has been a proposal for their conduct in Constantinople on Monday »he said.
Dmitry Peskov then pointed out that Russian President Vladimir Putin is not currently planning to speak with US President Donald Trump.
Recall that Trump has openly expressed his frustration by Putin in recent days, warning Tuesday that the Russian leader is “playing with fire” refusing to participate in ceasefire talks with Kiev, as his forces.
In response to Trump’s observations, the Kremlin said on Wednesday that President Putin is prioritizing Russia’s national interests above all.
The term of Russia to be peace
Russia needs legally binding mechanisms that will guarantee that the Ukrainian crisis will not be repeated, said Tatiana Dovgkalnko, head of the partnership with the Russian Foreign Ministry.
“The Ukrainian side is aware of our position that the definitive and sustainable settlement of the conflict can only be possible through complete and irreversible elimination of its deeper causes. We need credible, legally binding agreements and mechanisms that guarantee national interests, including security and crisis prevention. “she said during information from the African delegations at the 13th International Meeting of High Representatives who are responsible for security issues.
Pressures on Trump for sanctions in Moscow
Despite the efforts made to sit down on the table again, Russia with Ukraine some Republicans in Congress, and White House consultants are urging US President Donald Trump to eventually impose new sanctions on Moscow. The reason they do this is Russia’s growing aggression in Ukraine.
Trump has postponed such sanctions for months, believing that he could have fruitful relationships with Putin to end the war and considering that sanctions are generally used too much and is often ineffective.
White house officials say Trump still thinks sanctions will lead to tensions with Moscow, which could overturn hopes of ceasefire in the three -year conflict.
However, according to his associates, his frustration by Putin is genuine and increasingly intense. They say it is seriously considering sanctions after the escalation of Russia’s attacks in recent days. “He is always looking for different ways to exert pressure,” a senior White House official said. “It’s not different too. He always weighs his choices. “
US officials have prepared new financial sanctions against Russia, including banking and energy sector measures. They report that the sanctions package is ready to be implemented on the basis of Trump’s command.
Optimism by Erdogan
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said Russia’s proposal to hold another round of peace talks with Ukraine in Istanbul on June 2, reinforced Ankara’s hopes for peace, adding that these statements should not be taken.
Speaking to reporters during a flight from Azerbaijan, Erdogan said Ankara was in contact with both countries and added that recent momentum in peacekeeping is an opportunity to achieve constant peace.
“The road to resolving is going through more dialogue, more diplomacy. We use all our diplomatic power and potential for peace, “his office said on Thursday.
