The Kremlin has once again stated that it is the Ukrainian side that is allegedly not fulfilling the Minsk agreements on the issue of resolving the conflict in Donbass. At the same time, they are sure that this “is understood even in the United States.”
Such an assumption in the program of one of the pro-government channels expressed Dmitry Kozak, deputy head of the Russian presidential administration. His words quoted edition of “News”.
It is noted that during the broadcast, they discussed the results of Vladimir Putin’s talks with American leader Joe Biden in Geneva on June 16, where “the topic of Ukraine and Donbass was briefly touched upon.”
After the summit the head of the Russian Federation saidthey say, this is not the issue on which he is ready to conduct discussions and added that “here, perhaps, there is nothing to discuss.”
Biden confirmed that the Minsk agreements are at the heart of the settlement of the situation in Donbas. however, the Kremlin interpreted this as “understanding” by the US presidential administration that “Kiev is not fulfilling these agreements.”
“It seemed to me they understand!” – in particular, Kozak said.
Recall: June 16 in Geneva the summit of the leaders of the USA and Russia was held… In a narrow format, Biden and Putin talked for almost two hours, and then gave separate briefings.
American leader declared support for Ukraine and threatened the head of the Russian Federation because of the political prisoner Alexei Navalny.
From my side Putin blamed Ukraine, spoke about the enmity with the United States, responded to the “killer”, and also stated that he acted “adequately” during the capture of the Crimea.
Meanwhile, Russian human rights activist Mark Feigin expressed confidence that the question of Ukraine at the meeting of the presidents of the United States and the Russian Federation was centraldespite the fact that there were almost no thematic statements. According to him, the head of the Kremlin would like to use the American leader to put pressure on official Kiev, including to resume the supply of water to the occupied Crimea, but this is out of the question.
As reported OBOZREVATEL, French Foreign Minister Jacques-Yves Le Drian pointed to Russia the need to continue efforts in the Normandy and Minsk formats to find a solution to the conflict in Donbas.
