Analysts of the Institute for Studying War (ISW) emphasize that the recent statements and actions of the Kremlin indicate the unwillingness of Russia to conduct conscientious negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. The Kremlin again claims « the absence of sovereignty » In Ukraine, which, according to the Russian authorities, deprives her of the right to independent negotiations with Russia.
This is reported by URU-Inform, referring to ISW.
Press Secretary of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov on February 16 announced the adjustment of Russia's approach to possible negotiations, referring to « shortage » sovereignty of Ukraine. Such statements undermine the basics for a constructive dialogue and indicate the Kremlin’s desire to dictate its conditions.
In addition, the Russian state media actively use an interview with the former Verkhovna Rada deputy Viktor Medvedchuk, promoting the narrative about the illegality of the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky. This is part of the information campaign to discredit the Ukrainian leadership and justify the aggressive actions of Russia.
