Kremlin says that Ukraine sooner or later will have to negotiate with russia - Reuters

Ukraine will have to negotiate with russia sooner or later, but from a much worse position, said the spokesman for russian dictator putin, dmitry peskov. His words are quoted by Reuters on Thursday, November 13.

Peskov threatened that Kyiv's negotiating position would allegedly deteriorate every day. At the same time, putin's spokesman told reporters that russia remains open to a political and diplomatic settlement and "wants peace." But in the absence of such an opportunity, according to him, the russian federation will continue the fight to protect its own security "for the benefit of future generations."

"The Ukrainian side should know that sooner or later it will have to negotiate, but from a much worse position. The position of the Kyiv regime will deteriorate every day," Peskov said.

The publication noted that Moscow accused Ukrainian officials of refusing to participate in peace talks.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on November 13, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine was open to talks with the russians.

On October 29, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that peace between Ukraine and russia could only be achieved with the participation of an external mediator, and in his opinion, only US President Donald Trump could fulfill this role.
