The head of the Foreign Ministry says that in fact Russia does not seek peace.
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba denied information about that Putin would like to “find a solution to the conflict with Ukraine and the West through negotiations“.
“There is nothing more cynical than the fact that Putin's henchmen say that Russia is ready for peace talks. We hear and see this “readiness” every day: artillery strikes, rocket terror against the civilian population, mass crimes,” he wrote on Twitter.
