Details: Putin said that he allegedly wants to achieve a resolution of the situation in Ukraine through negotiations.
Direct speech: “They (the negotiations – ed.) reached a very high stage of agreeing on positions in a complex process (in Istanbul in 2022 – ed.), and they were almost completed.
But after we withdrew our troops from Kyiv, the other side rejected all these agreements and obeyed the instructions of Western countries, European countries and the United States to fight Russia to the end.
In addition, the President of Ukraine legally prohibited negotiations with Russia. He signed a decree prohibiting everyone from negotiating with Russia.”
“We know that he (the President of Ukraine – ed.) is putting forward some ideas for this settlement, but in order to agree on something, dialogue is needed. Isn’t that so?”
Details: According to Putin, Ukraine is now putting forward conditions that Russia cannot agree to.
Note that Putin began the interview with a lengthy supposed history lesson, he made manipulative claims about the sovereignty of Ukraine and distorted historical interpretations of Ukrainian statehood.
