Although there were reports of progress being made during Ukraine–Russia ceasefire talks, a top Kremlin spokesman disputed that assertion as incorrect but said that discussions are still being held on Thursday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the Financial Times that the Kyiv government is “in no rush“ and dragging its feet. ”On the whole,“ reports about the progress being made ”[are] wrong,“ Peskov said. He also criticized President Joe Biden for recently calling Russian President Vladimir Putin a ”war criminal“ as ”unforgivable.”
