Russia to Persist with Military Operations Amid Diplomatic Efforts
Russia will continue its military operations until a diplomatic agreement secures the nation’s safety, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated on Monday. His assertions arrive as the European Union and the United States deliberate on imposing further sanctions against Russia, reports 24brussels.
Peskov emphasized that “No sanctions can force Russia to change its stance on Ukraine,” particularly as U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans for a second phase of sanctions amid stalled negotiations over the ongoing conflict. He criticized previous sanctions as “useless,” contending that the extensive measures enforced over nearly four years have had no tangible impact on Russia.
Highlighting a strong linkage between Kyiv and Europe, Peskov asserted that Ukrainian officials were actively advocating for the U.S. to impose these new restrictions. The Kremlin conveyed a readiness to engage with U.S. peace initiatives, with Peskov stating, “We welcome these efforts and hope they will continue to be pursued in a constructive direction.” He confirmed that Moscow is monitoring any developments regarding U.S. sanctions closely.
On the previous day, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reaffirmed EU support for Ukraine, pledging to strengthen the country’s military capabilities and intensify sanctions against Russia. European Council President Antonio Costa condemned a recent series of Russian drone and missile strikes that targeted multiple Ukrainian towns, including government buildings in Kyiv.
“We must stay the course: strengthen Ukraine’s defenses and increase pressure on Russia through additional sanctions, in close coordination with our allies and partners,” Costa underscored. He noted that a European Union delegation had recently traveled to the U.S. to negotiate potential coordinated sanctions against Russia, with preparations underway for the EU’s 19th sanctions package.
