Russian President Vladimir Putin has reiterated Russia’s readiness for peace negotiations with Ukraine. Speaking at a high-profile event in Moscow, Putin emphasized that the door to diplomacy remains open, despite the ongoing conflict that has gripped the region for nearly two years.
“Russia has never shied away from dialogue,” Putin said, urging Kyiv to approach the table with “realistic proposals.” The statement comes amid intensified international calls for a ceasefire and growing humanitarian concerns in the war-torn areas.
Ukrainian officials, however, have expressed skepticism, demanding concrete actions from Moscow as a prerequisite for any meaningful dialogue. The global community watches closely, hoping that this gesture could pave the way for a breakthrough in the crisis.
Could this be the turning point for peace, or just another diplomatic stalemate? The coming days may hold the answer.
