Russia has declared that offensive will resume after peace
talks with Ukraine failed to materialise.
Aljezeera quoted the Kremlin to have said Russian troops
have started advancing into Ukraine again after President Vladimir Putin
allegedly paused Moscow’s offensive in anticipation of talks with Ukraine that
failed to materialise.
Speaking to reporters at a news briefing at the Kremlin,
spokesman Dmitry Peskov accused Ukraine’s leadership of “refusing to
negotiate”.
Recall that on Friday, Peskov said the Russian leader was
ready to send a delegation of officials to Belarus, where Russia has stationed
thousands of troops, for talks.
He later claimed Kyiv had proposed Warsaw as a venue instead
and that negotiations over a potential meeting ended without an agreement
because the Ukrainian side went silent.
“Since the Ukrainian side refused to negotiate, the advance
of the Russian forces resumed this afternoon,” Peskov said at Saturday’s news
briefing.
