The Kremlin’s press service reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin answered a call from German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. The head of the German government and the Russian leader discussed the situation with the negotiations of the Russian and Ukrainian delegations that had almost stopped.
As noted in the message, in addition, Putin outlined to the German Chancellor “the logic and main tasks of the special operation to protect Donbass.” The President also informed what measures the Russian side is taking to ensure the safety of civilians.
In addition, Vladimir Putin drew the attention of Olaf Scholz to the fact that “Ukrainian militants professing Nazi ideology” grossly violate international humanitarian law and use terrorist methods.
“A principled assessment of the state of affairs at the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations, which, in fact, are blocked by Kiev, has been given,” he added The Kremlin.
