Russia will carry out its “special military operation” until the end, until it defends its interests and achieves its goals – through military action or “other available means”, Dmytro Peskov said on Wednesday, according to the TASS news agency. the term Moscow prefers to describe the war it launched against the neighboring country 15 months ago.

According to Peskov, there are currently no signs that a peaceful solution will be possible. Negotiations with Kyiv are impossible because the leadership of Ukraine “forbids any negotiations with Russia,” said Peskov.

The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, made the withdrawal of Russian troops from the occupied Ukrainian territories a prerequisite for peace negotiations.

Putin sees “increasing instability in the world” because of the West

At the same time, in a video address to a security conference in Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke of “increasing instability in the world” in the context of the war he ordered almost a year and a half ago.

Vladimir Putin has blamed the West for this instability, saying that Western powers are trying to maintain their global dominance at the expense of other countries.
