"Ukraine should put up": Putin in conversation with Erdogan called the condition for renewal of dialogue

During a telephone conversation with Erdogan, the Kremlin head stated that Moscow was open for negotiations with Kiev, but subject to its repeatedly announced requirements. Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a telephone conversation with Turkish colleague Recep Taiip Erdogan, stated that Ukraine should accept the political settlement of the conflict with "new territorial realities". The Kremlin press service reports.

During the conversation, the Russian president declared Moscow's openness to serious dialogue with Kiev, but only if the Ukrainian authorities have fulfilled the requirements that have been repeatedly voiced. According to the Russian President, in the context of possible dialogue, Western countries play a "destructive role", continuing to supply weapons to Ukraine and provide it with armed forces with operational information and target.

For his part, Erdogan stated that the Turkish side was also aimed at promoting the dialogue of Russia and Ukraine. According to him, calls for peace talks should be supported by a unilateral ceasefire and a "vision of a fair decision. " The Turkish leader also noted that in general, the dialogue on the Russian-Ukrainian war brought positive results, including an initiative to create a "grain corridor", exchange prisoners of war and create a safe zone around the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
