Zakharova: We do not negotiate with terrorists
The spokesman of the Russian Foreign Ministry said that a fair and lasting solution to the war in Ukraine would be “impossible” without taking into account Russia’s interests, and that Russia would not negotiate with “terrorists”.
According to RCO News Agency, Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, wrote in a note published on the ministry’s website: “It is impossible to achieve a just and sustainable solution to the conflict in Ukraine without taking into account Russia and its interests.”
Tass News agency quoted the spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry as saying: “The armed attack of the Ukrainian army on the Kursk region and the requests of Zelensky (President of Ukraine) for attacks deep into Russian territory with NATO’s long-range weapons indicate this. This is a sign of the continuation of terror against the people of our country. “We will not negotiate with terrorists.”
Referring to the “end of Zelensky’s legitimacy” and the possibility of holding the second Ukrainian peace conference in November with the presence of Russian representatives, Zakharova emphasized: “Zelensky’s statements – whose legitimacy has ended – are false hopes and dreams. “Russian representatives have not and will not participate in any meeting within the framework of the Borgenstock process.”
The Kyiv-initiated peace conference on Ukraine was held in Burgenstock, Switzerland, on June 15-16. Armenia, Bahrain, Brazil, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, Mexico, Rwanda, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Thailand, and the United Arab Emirates did not sign the statement of the summit, and Russia was not invited. It should be noted that most of the UN representatives did not participate.
Recently, it was reported that “Volodymyr Zelenskyi”, the president of Ukraine, proposed to hold a summit hosted by India on the topic of ending the war with Russia.
The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia stated in the continuation of this note: “This process has nothing to do with the resolution of the conflict. This issue is another fraud of the Anglo-Saxons and their Ukrainian agents. The second so-called Ukrainian peace conference also pursues the same goal. Russia will not participate in such meetings. “We are ready to discuss and discuss serious proposals that take into account the situation on the battlefield.”
