Peskov: 'The US talks about this openly and officially'

The West still does not allow for a slowdown in military operations in Ukraine, and the US talks about this openly and officially, said Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the Russian president, in response to journalists' questions about the prospects for peace negotiations. The information was reported by RIA Novosti.

“So far, we absolutely see a continuing trend that prevents any halt to military operations. Washington, the State Department, and the American National Security Council have openly and officially discussed this,” Peskov stated, responding to a question about whether China could mediate between Moscow and Washington regarding negotiations on the situation in Ukraine.
