Russian President Vladimir Putin has refused to provide security guarantees to Ukraine without decisions in Crimea and Donbass.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a meeting with UN Secretary-General António Guterres, said that Russia could not sign security guarantees for Ukraine until the issue of ownership of Crimea and Donbas. This was reported by Interfax.
According to Putin, during the talks between Ukraine and Russia, a breakthrough took place in Turkey, and the Ukrainian side agreed to put “out of brackets” such a concept as international recognized national borders. It is about the occupied Crimea and Donbass. However, after the incident in Bucha, Kyiv region, Ukraine changed its position, proposing to resolve the issue of ownership of Crimea and Donbass at a meeting of heads of state.
“In this case, we simply can not subscribe to security guarantees without resolving the issue of natural territory in relation to Crimea, Sevastopol and the ‘republic’ of Donbass,” Putin said.
Recall, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said at a meeting with Putin that he considered the war in Ukraine as an aggression against Russia.
He also proposed the creation of a contact group in the UN-Russia-Ukraine format to address humanitarian issues in Ukraine.
