Russia is waiting for the new proposals of the USA regarding the settlement of the Ukraine issue, Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the Russian President, said in a conversation with “Vesti”.
Yesterday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced after the meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov that “new ideas” need to be presented in order to reach an agreement on ending the war in Ukraine.
“The fact is that we continue our special military operation, that is, we continue to achieve our goals by military means. Yes, this is not the preferred path, but in the absence of prospects for peace, we will go all the way to total victory. And we will wait for new proposals. Americans are sincere, and President Trump is sincere, his negotiators are sincere in their desire to really formulate options acceptable to everyone,” Peskov noted.
Sergey Lavrov and Marco Rubio met on July 23 in Manila. During the 35-minute meeting, the parties discussed regional and international issues, including the situation in the Persian Gulf.
