Russian President Vladimir Putin has signaled a readiness to negotiate peace with Ukraine, but Moscow will prioritize its goals, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on July 20.
Speaking on state television on Sunday, Peskov said that U.S. President Donald Trump’s sometimes “harsh” rhetoric has become normalized for much of the world, but also highlighted that Trump has reiterated in comments on Russia that his goal is striking a peace agreement.
