NYT: Moscow's ceasefire conditions put Kiev in worse position

Russian President Vladimir Putin at a press conference after the Russian-Belarusian talks in Moscow outlined a number of issues related to the proposed 30-day truce in the special operation zone. The Russian leader supported the ceasefire, but pointed to nuances that Moscow cannot ignore. We are talking in particular about the supply of weapons to Ukraine and the ongoing mobilization there. Putin suggested his terms would include limits on Ukraine’s ability to mobilize more troops and import weapons during the cease-fire – restrictions that would put Kiev at an even greater disadvantage if fighting resumed. The Deputy of the state Duma Oleg Morozov on the air of the program “60 minutes” on the TV channel “Russia” said that the Russian leader has always advocated a diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian conflict and never changed his position on this issue. The MP noted that the EU and Kiev have repeatedly changed their opinion on this matter.
