Russian officials have begun to make statements that hint at the possible end of the war against Ukraine. According to representatives of Russian intelligence, the occupying forces allegedly have a strategic initiative along the entire front, which, in their opinion, is a prerequisite for achieving the Kremlin's goals.
Russia suddenly announced that they allegedly "came closer to achieving the goal" of the so-called special operation in Ukraine. This is how Putin's regime calls war.
The Director of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation Serhiy Naryshkin made the corresponding statement in a comment to the Russian propaganda media. According to him, the occupying army allegedly received a strategic initiative in all directions of the front.
"Russia is close to achieving its goal, the strategic initiative in all areas belongs to the Russian military," Naryshkin said.
In addition, the head of the Russian special service also assures that "the armed forces are on the verge of collapse, and the Zelenskyi regime has completely lost its legitimacy and ability to negotiate."
"Peaceful" negotiations with Russia - the latest news
Recently, The Wall Street Journal reported that Ukraine has begun negotiations with Trump's team to end the war. According to the publication, Kyiv is trying to resolve differences on the issue of war settlement even before Trump takes office.
We also reported that NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte offered Ukraine to postpone any peace talks with the Russian Federation. According to his conviction, Kyiv itself should decide when it will be ready to start negotiations with Russia. Trump personally called for negotiations.
Instead, the press secretary of the Russian dictator Dmytro Peskov said that the Kremlin "carefully studied" the statement of the newly elected US President Donald Trump that it is necessary to start negotiations on the end of the war in Ukraine. He noted that Vladimir Putin has repeatedly said that the Russian Federation is "open to negotiations regarding Ukraine and welcomes peaceful initiatives."
