Război în Ucraina, ziua 1.658. Lavrov: „Negocierile de pace se pot desfășura în paralel cu luptele”

Russia is open to resuming peace negotiations with Ukraine but sees no need to halt fighting during discussions, according to Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. He emphasized that diplomacy and military actions can occur simultaneously, recalling past experiences. Lavrov noted that a previous peace agreement was abandoned by Ukraine under pressure from the U.S. and the UK. Meanwhile, President Putin continues military operations, asserting that the complete occupation of the Donbas region is imminent. Discussions between Putin and U.S. President Trump included calls for a swift end to hostilities, while Ukrainian President Zelensky mentioned potential meetings among negotiators this month, which Russia deemed premature.
