President Putin Gives Conditions To End War With Ukraine

Russian President, Vladimir Putin has revealed what will make him stop the war against Ukraine.

He made his thoughts known at a peace talk held between Moscow and Kyiv in the Belarusian borders on Monday.

The meeting ended with both sides merely agreeing to hold a second round of negotiations “soon”, according to CNN.

However, the Russian leader was able to pass the message on the only conditions under which he would consider withdrawing his troops from the neighbouring country during a phone conversation with France President, Emmanuel Macron on Monday.

“Putin stressed that a settlement is possible only if Russia’s legitimate security interests are unconditionally taken into account, including the recognition of Russian sovereignty over Crimea, the demilitarisation and denazification of the Ukrainian State and ensuring its neutral status,” CNN quoted a Russian statement via UK medium, PA News agency after the telephone conversation between the two leaders.

The war started on Thursday when President Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine over some political reasons.
