रूस ने पश्चिम और यूक्रेन को शांति को ब्लॉक करने का आरोप लगाया है, और मैक्सिमलिस्ट मांगों पर जोर दिया है।

Russia claims it prefers a diplomatic and political resolution to the war in Ukraine, but accuses Ukraine and Western nations of rejecting all proposals for dialogue. Russian officials, including Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova and Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, argue that peace has never been a genuine priority for the West, which they say continues to fuel the conflict by arming Kyiv. Despite some reports of potential talks, Moscow maintains that military operations will continue until its objectives are met. The Kremlin has also introduced new, stringent demands as prerequisites for restoring relations with Ukraine. The ongoing stalemate highlights deep mistrust and a lack of progress toward a negotiated settlement.
