US President Joe Biden is ready to negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the topic of ending the conflict in Ukraine, if the Russian side agrees to this. Biden said this at a press conference after talks with French President Emmanuel Macron.
“Mr. Putin… here I have to choose my words very carefully. I am ready to talk to Mr Putin if he really shows interest in ending the war.” declared Biden (quote from RIA Novosti).
At the same time, the American leader added that he had no planned contacts with Putin in the near future.
Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov earlier reiterated the impossibility of holding negotiations with Kyiv because of their denial by the Ukrainian side. In particular, the refusal of Ukraine at the legislative level to negotiate with Russia hinders the dialogue. He added that in order to resume dialogue, Ukraine must not only repeal the law refusing to negotiate with Moscow, but also show political will.
