Kievs stance makes it very difficult to move towards a resolution of the conflict, Dmitry Peskov has said

The public dispute between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky at the White House last week is further evidence that Kiev is not genuinely interested in a diplomatic resolution to its conflict with Russia, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has stated.

Zelensky's visit to the White House on Friday was abruptly cut short after a heated exchange with the US president and vice president in front of the media. During the tense meeting, Donald Trump and J.D. Vance accused the Ukrainian leader of "gambling with World War III" by refusing to negotiate peace with Russia. They also criticized him as ungrateful and disrespectful despite the significant military aid Washington has provided to Kiev.

During the intense argument, Zelensky once again ruled out talks with Moscow, demanded security guarantees from the US, and denied that Ukrainian forces are facing manpower shortages.

"The Kiev regime and Zelensky do not want peace," Peskov told journalists on Monday.

The Ukrainian leader's behavior at the Oval office "demonstrated how difficult it will be to get on the path of a settlement around Ukraine," he said.
