Bloomberg: Kremlinul nu mai ia în calcul retragerea din zonele ocupate din Sumî și Harkov în cadrul unui acord de pace
Russia has decided not to return occupied territories in Sumy and Kharkiv, aiming to keep them as permanent buffer zones. President Putin seeks full control over the Donetsk region while abandoning previous discussions about territorial concessions. This shift in strategy follows intensified Ukrainian attacks and pressure from the U.S. Ukraine continues to reject territorial cessions, proposing a ceasefire along the current front lines for peace negotiations.
