Kremlin: Russian citizen is released as a result of Moscow and Washington talks

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today (Wednesday) that a Russian citizen will be returned to Russia in the coming days following recent conversations between Moscow and Washington.

On Tuesday, White House National Security Adviser Mike Waltz announced that Trump’s special envoy to West Asian affairs traveled to Moscow to realize the release of Mark Fogel, the US citizen of Russia, Freddie He has been sentenced to 5 years in prison for carrying drugs. Hours later, Trump announced that another American citizen will be released from Russia after the release of Fuggel.

“The contacts between Russia and the United States led to the release of Fuggel as well as the release of a Russian citizen, who is currently being held in US detention centers,” Peskov said. “The Russian citizen will also be returned to Russia in the coming days.”

He added that Fuggel’s return to the United States and the return of the Russian citizen to the homeland were the result of increased diplomatic calls between Russian and American institutions, and the Russian citizen’s name will be announced after his arrival on Russian territory.

Peskov also said: “Such agreements are the result of very complicated negotiations … Of course, these agreements are unlikely to be a turning point in relationships, but steps to build mutual trust.”

Armenia’s membership in the EU is a sovereignty decision

A spokesman for the Kremlin also said Armenia’s willingness to join the European Union is an independent and sovereign decision. He made the remarks after the Armenian parliament had launched a plan to begin the process of joining the European Union.

“This is an Armenian sovereignty,” Peskov said. Of course, the Armenians and other relevant parties need to determine how bilateral this tendency is and what the European Union views. “

He said that some political forces in Armenia believe that proximity to the European Union could have more benefits for the country, stating that Yerevan still benefits from membership in the Eurasian Economic Union and that the benefits of this membership are quite obvious.

Moscow is always ready to negotiate Ukraine’s head

Peskov further emphasized that Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready for peace talks, and this position is world -renowned.

Responding to Ukrainian President Walodimir Zelnsky’s remarks that Putin is not ready for peace, he said: “President Putin has repeatedly stated that he and Russia are ready for peace talks. “Russia’s position is fully transparent, constant and internationally recognized.”

Western media hide Kiev’s crimes

Peskov also said Moscow was trying to get the information to the world, saying that the Western media still ignores the crimes of Ukrainian forces.

The Kremlin said after the Russian Defense Ministry announced that the Russian forces found that Ukrainian militants had taken hostages hostage and killed almost all men after reclaiming control of Nikolavo-Darino. According to Sputnik, only one of the massacre had survived.

“Unfortunately, the Western media continues to cover their policy of covering these horrific crimes,” Peskov said. They are not even willing to publish balanced and truth -centered information on such brutal measures. “However, our diplomats will continue to try to inform the world through international organizations and in bilateral interactions.”

Moscow hopes Israel and Hamas adhere to their commitments

A spokesman for the Kremlin also said Russia is monitoring the Palestinian conflict and expects the Zionist and Hamas regime to adhere to their commitments within the framework of the agreement.

The statement came after Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that if Hamas did not release Zionist prisoners by Saturday, the regime would resume its military operation in the Gaza Strip.

“We are monitoring the situation and we hope that each two parties will adhere to their obligations and the hostages will be released,” Peskov said.

It is not possible to exchange land between Russia and Ukraine

In response to Kiev’s statements about the possibility of land exchange between Russia and Ukraine, he insisted that Russia would never negotiate and would not negotiate on the exchange of its lands, because this is impossible.

In an interview with the Guardian newspaper, Wallodimir Zelksky did not reject the possibility of exchange with Russia and considered it one of the possible options. “This is impossible,” Peskov said in response to the statements. Russia has never and will never raise the issue of exchange of its lands. Ukrainian forces will be expelled from these areas, if not killed. “
