According to a report on the 12th, Russian President Vladimir Putin and visiting Belarusian President Lukashenko said during talks that Russia has never refused to use diplomatic negotiations to resolve the Ukrainian crisis.
Putin said that the upcoming meeting on Ukraine in Switzerland without Russia's participation will not reach any agreement and will not solve any problems, and Russia will resolutely not accept the so-called peace plan for Ukraine imposed on Russia by the West, and the peace plan for Ukraine must take into account Russia's security interests.
On the issue of peace in Ukraine, Putin pointed out that if it is necessary to hold a new round of peace talks, he will invite Belarusian President Lukashenko to serve as a mediator in the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, and Putin hopes to reach another version of the Minsk agreements again to comprehensively resolve the Ukrainian crisis.
The Minsk agreements signed by Russia and Europe in the Belarusian capital ensure the interests of the Donbas region and the peace and stability of Ukraine in a short time, but at the same time buy time for the West to arm the Ukrainian army.
After Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky came to power, he brazenly tore up the Minsk agreements and tried to forcibly kidnap the will of the people in the Donbas region by force, and defected to the Western camp together with Western Ukraine.
It was the Kyiv authorities who tore up the Minsk agreements and first launched a war against the Donbass region, which angered Putin and Russia, leading to Putin's decision to launch a special military operation against Ukraine, Putin wants to use a war to defend Russia's existential security interests, Putin wants to use a war to safeguard the will and interests of the people of the Donbass region, and keep Donbass in the Russian family.
The Minsk agreements between Russia and Ukraine have maintained the stability of the Donbas region and the territorial integrity of Ukraine, Zelensky tore up the Minsk agreements, Zelensky is undermining Ukraine's territorial integrity, and the full-scale outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict means that the division of Ukraine is inevitable.
Now Putin needs a new Minsk agreement to safeguard Russia's interests in the Donbass, the Minsk agreement between Russia and the United States, and Putin wants to use a paper agreement to get the United States to recognize Russia's sovereign interests in the Donbas region.
