Russian expert: Russia shows clear interest in ending Ukrainian conflict
Moscow - Saba:
Alexei Martynov, Associate Professor at the Russian State Financial University and President of the International Institute for Emerging Countries, confirmed that Russia is interested in ending the Ukrainian conflict as quickly as possible.
Sputnik quoted Martynov as saying, "In fact, Russia, as well as the United States, is interested in ending the Ukrainian crisis as soon as possible."
He added, "On the other hand, Zelensky is bargaining over his guarantees, realizing that he is a redundant figure in the current situation. Russia is already ready to resume talks without any conditions. Our position is known, published, and announced."
He added that Moscow rightly considers the Istanbul Agreements, which were never implemented, as a basis for potential negotiations with Kyiv.
Martynov continued: "This is all just an exchange of signals. This is our position, and it is widely known. There is clear progress, and it is very good progress. It is also important that the phrase 'negotiations without preconditions' means that both sides have no preconditions... The goal is to sit down and start a dialogue.
On Saturday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed Russia's readiness to negotiate with Ukraine without preconditions during his meeting with US President Donald Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff.
