"I emphasize again that it would be in another consciously partner: we, as before, open to negotiations, we have never refused them, we are ready to lead them. Of course, given the realities that are formed at this time. " It should be noted after the Russian leadership is clear that it is not possible to cope with Ukraine on the battlefield, the calls for negotiations began to sound almost daily.
On November 2, Maria Zakharova also stated that Russia was waiting for signals from Ukraine about the desire to return to the negotiation process "taking into account new territorial realities and the situation on Earth". In Ukraine, it is noted that the Russians are not in the situation now to dictate the conditions.
On November 8, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Andriy Rudenko assured that Moscow does not put forward any preliminary conditions of Kiev to sit at the negotiating table. In the office of President Zelensky, they waved from this statement, calling it a "verbal game". The Kremlin will attract every opportunity to try to bow Ukraine to ceasefire and leave the occupied Ukrainian territories. To do this, try to use the most influential foreigners.
For example, in October, Pope Francis proposed peace talks in the Vatican. Since then, he has been talking about the need to negotiate, the last statement was published on November 9. At the same time, Kyiv states that the idea of negotiation has never been abandoned, but they can only begin after Russia withdraw its troops from the territory of Ukraine.
