Kremlin says peace talks with Ukraine have yet to yield progress

The Kremlin said on Monday that peace talks between Moscow and Kiev had not yet produced major advances and urged countries that can exert influence over Ukraine to use it to make Kiev “more constructive”.

Speaking to reporters on a conference call, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said significant progress in the negotiations still needed to be made to provide a basis for a possible meeting between President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky.

Russia sent tens of thousands of troops to Ukraine on February 24 in what it called a special operation to degrade its southern neighbor’s military capabilities and eradicate people it called dangerous nationalists.

Ukrainian forces mounted strong resistance and the West imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia in an effort to force it to withdraw its forces.
