In a call with the President of France, Emmanuel Macronthe Russian president, Vladimir Putinsaid that Russia is still open to dialogue with Kyiv, reported the Russian news agency Interfax as quoted by Reuters. Putin added that the West could help end the atrocities committed by the Ukrainian security forces, Interfax reported.
Progress in peace talks between Russia and Ukraine has stalled in recent weeks as Russia focused its efforts on securing more territory in southern and eastern Ukraine. The peace talks have been marred by growing allegations against Russian military forces committing war crimes against Ukrainian civilians.
Russia is reportedly planning what Western officials are calling a “mock” referendum in Ukraine’s southern region, which is likely to weigh heavily on the prospect of any progress in peace talks in the coming weeks.
