Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed Monday that while serious work continues on a proposed peace agreement for the Ukraine conflict, Russia has yet to submit a draft document. The announcement follows a recent prisoner exchange and ongoing diplomatic efforts.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that Russia is actively working on a proposed peace deal regarding the war in Ukraine, but no formal draft has been submitted to date. The commitment to develop a memorandum was made after Russian President Vladimir Putin’s phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump last week.
