War and Peace: TOP QUOTES From Russian Leadership On The Prospects Of The Ukrainian Сonflict

Click to see the full-size image

In recent weeks, the Russian political elite has made a series of bold statements regarding the future of the war in Ukraine and the prospects for peace talks. The meeting of President Vladimir Putin with government members, held on June 4, 2025, became a key moment in analyzing the Kremlin’s position amidst the ongoing conflict.

During the meeting, the Russian leader, referencing terrorist attacks in Bryansk and Kursk regions, emphasized that “this regime does not need peace at all.” He further stated that any negotiations with the Ukrainian leadership are senseless as long as Ukraine continues to attack civilians.



“Of course, everywhere and always during armed conflicts, unfortunately, civilians suffer. But what happened in Bryansk, in the Bryansk Region, was a targeted strike against civilians. And according to all international norms, such actions are called terrorism. All crimes committed against civilians, including women and children, right before the next round of proposed peace talks in Istanbul, were undoubtedly aimed at sabotaging the peace process. The strike was deliberately aimed at the civilian population. And this only confirms our fear that the already illegitimate regime in Kiev, which once seized power, is gradually turning into a terrorist organization, and its sponsors are becoming accomplices of terrorists.”— Vladimir Putin

 The Russian leader questioned the possibility of holding a summit with Ukraine and a ceasefire in light of the recent terrorist attacks. He noted that a respite in military actions would be used by Kiev for forced mobilization, weapons supply, and preparation of terrorist acts.

 Just recently, the Ukrainian authorities and their allies dreamed of a strategic defeat of Russia on the battlefield. Today, in the face of enormous losses, retreating along the entire line of contact, trying to intimidate Russia, the Kyiv leadership has resorted to organizing terrorist acts. And at the same time, they ask to suspend hostilities for 30 or even 60 days. They ask for a high-level meeting. But how can such meetings take place under these conditions? What is there to discuss? Who can negotiate with those who rely on terror? With terrorists. And why should they be rewarded by providing a respite in military actions, which will be used to supply the regime with Western weapons, to continue forced mobilization, and to prepare other terrorist acts like those carried out in the Bryansk and Kursk regions?

As for the level of our negotiators, humanitarian pauses, in accordance with generally accepted international practice, the level is determined by the country they represent. Only those with unquestionable authority and a high level of competence can assess that level. What kind of authority can be held by the leaders of a thoroughly corrupt and completely rotten regime?

This is something that is discussed worldwide. What competence can those boast of, whose will has led the Ukrainian armed forces, for example, in the Kursk Region, to suffer utterly senseless and enormous losses? And today they are suffering one defeat after another on the battlefield. It seems we are dealing with people who not only lack any significant competence in anything, but also basic political culture, if they allow themselves certain statements and even direct insults towards those they are trying to negotiate with.”Vladimir Putin

According to Putin, the Kiev regime “does not want peace at all,” as peace would likely mean the loss of power for them.

“As for the latest refusal of a 2-3 day ceasefire for humanitarian reasons, this is not the first time. It doesn’t surprise us, but only convinces us that the current Kiev regime does not want peace at all. For them, peace most likely means losing power. And for this regime, apparently, power is more important than peace and the lives of people, who, apparently, they do not consider as valuable.” — Vladimir Putin.


 Despite Putin’s harsh criticism, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov noted:

“It is essential to preserve communication; this will help address the core humanitarian concerns that affect both sides.”— Sergey Lavrov, the head of Russian diplomacy

Lavrov also added that while Russia has not closed the door to diplomacy, the actions of the Ukrainian government raise serious doubts:

“We have consistently tried to keep the channel for dialogue open, but the actions of the current Ukrainian regime speak volumes about their intentions.”— Sergey Lavrov



Vladimir Medinsky, head of the Russian negotiating delegation, reported on the results of the negotiations in Istanbul and presented the details of Ukraine’s memorandum on a peaceful settlement, which boil down to two points. The first is to start with a 30- or 60-day unconditional ceasefire. The second point is to use this ceasefire to prepare for a summit of state leaders. Additionally, there were reports on further agreements regarding a new, equally significant exchange, not only of prisoners of war in equal proportions but also the transfer of the severely wounded, sick, and the return of the bodies of the deceased.

However, he also stated that the peace talks were generally overshadowed by Ukrainian refusals:

“They first agreed to work on our proposal for a ceasefire, but two hours later, Zelensky publicly rejected the supposed agreement.”— Vladimir Medinsky

He continued with a critical assessment of Ukraine’s stance, underlining the difficulty of reaching any meaningful agreements:

“It’s clear that they [Ukrainian leadership] are not interested in peace. They are more focused on continuing the war and using every opportunity to escalate the conflict.” — Vladimir Medinsky


 Russian Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko discussed the humanitarian response and medical aid for the victims of the terrorist attacks in Bryansk:

“Within 15 minutes of the first report, two emergency teams were dispatched, and we increased the number of teams to 17, including specialized ones for emergency medical care.”— Mikhail Murashko, Minister of Health of Russia

During the meeting, Alexander Bastrykin, Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, provided a detailed update on the investigation into the recent terrorist attacks in Bryansk and Kursk regions. He outlined key findings, including the method of operation used in the attacks, and confirmed that the evidence gathered points directly to Ukraine’s intelligence services as the perpetrators.

“At the sites of all three terrorist attacks, the same professional method of placing explosive devices was used, as well as plastic explosive material of foreign production and control units of the LoR type, produced in Ukraine. The same units were also found in a cache. Therefore, the evidence collected by the investigation directly points to the fact that all three attacks were organized by Ukraine’s intelligence services.” — Alexander Bastrykin, Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia

 So, what do we have now?

It seems peace is a distant dream for Russia’s leadership, as President Putin casts doubt on any meaningful negotiations with Ukraine. He’s accused Kiev of using terror tactics and turning ceasefires into opportunities to reload and re-arm. According to Putin, peace doesn’t seem to be on the agenda for Kiev — after all, power is much more important than people’s lives, right?

Russia may be technically open to dialogue, but let’s be real: with Ukraine’s repeated refusals and its non-stop aggression, it’s hard to take their “peace talks” seriously. As long as Kiev insists on playing the villain in this drama, don’t expect peace to make a surprise appearance anytime soon.

Malcolm Z

ukraine and western countries dont care about putin words because they support ukraine maidan regime and its terrorist methods, they will only worry if russia starts attacking kiev sensitive places and hunting maidan regime members include zelensky.

Aragorn

yes, its principally wrong to cut a poisonous snake in pieces from the tail. this time, all “satan” missiles should have be fired upon “us”. but my thoughts are, that they dont work, and that we live in a world ruled by psychopaths, by fear, lies and trick movies.

Moshe Dayan

mlk once remarked that all of the greatest killers in history came out with propaganda saying they wanted peace. zelensky and his terror sponsors are exactly whom mlk was warning about, and are of the same demonic cult who killed king. the russian federation must stand against the odious pigs of evil marching out of the ukroreich, london and dc.

if they exist, yes. but more experienced technicians than i, with relatives in the swedish nuclear industry, tells they dont. thats also my impression from hiroshima and nagasaki. burned by napalm, occupation, lies, and later by trick movies. imported germans, you know. later, they continue with “moon landings” 🤡

the japanese surrendered explicitly because nuclear weapons were used on them. nuclear weapons exist and they can force even the most fanatical enemies to their knees and make them agree to any terms the victor imposes

Captain

totally agree

JamL

come on, enough talk. we want to see a reaction, the world needs to see one. either react or step aside and admit that you are losing the war.

Vanya

or step aside and let someone who is decisive take over. if putin had to deal with georgia that would still be going on too, medvedev took care of it in days.

yes russia needs a much more decisive and assertive leader

russia should be really aware of the us, and the eu vassals, after the ussr defeat, the master exceptional breed and their lesser domain childrens in european union were fighting an hybrid war of aggression since 1990 and continued even after the ussr collapse. war never stopped, there was always disguised, covered, behind the scenes to corrupt, bribe, disrupt, and enslave all ussr domains. now they are directly attacking russia through ukraine.

war never stopped afterall, its like western goy1ms are too delighted with hollywood propaganda and internet social networks and disinformation so they never get they are used by the empire has cattle in order to expand the empire. it’s very cannibalistic the western world. they are in love with money and corruption.

Aragorn

thank you for using the word cannibalistic ! its exactly what it is.

Edgar Zetar

they are cannibals in disguise, empires expanded by cannibals and by other psychology archetypes so common and designed by the masters of the empire in western civilization.

Aragorn

yes, they used their clown reagan, the worst actor the devil ever have used.

Edgar Zetar

great player performance from a great actor reagan and so manny others after wwii ends. the free liberal radical democracy order age is about to end. the us empire looks confused by their own creation and doesn’t know how to continue this world of propaganda and mind persuasive control to the goy1m.

the narrative

do the creators of the ukraine and greater israel project want peace ? they are the same psychopathic mafia cult members running both wars. they do not understand reason nor , do they wish too . if you dropped 6 nuclear bombs on the las vegas strip you would have gaza today . but to israelis siezure of the west bank is more important . they plan to create big israel in ukraine to rule russia .

since ukraine has a grudge against russian railways, it is time to wipe out all of ukraine’s railways. however, instead of the ukrainian way of focusing on killing civilian rail passengers, russia should do humanitarian bombing, wiping out tracks, stations and rail bridges when not in use, giving the ukrainians plenty of time to cancel trains.

Edgar Zetar

more than a dozen countries against one, doesn’t looks like a fair war. i did some research time ago. if all european countries under nato go against russia on a war, russia will win. the us wanted nato to deter first and then to weak russia so they could finish them up. us empire is looking for ways to keeping up with their sole hegemony, reinforced worldwide in the civil domain by propaganda, but in the real way by force, might, military power over colonies.

you are a fool. think what you said. 1. the masters of the empire and eu vassals will put somebody worst than zelensky for sure. 2. they will use this assassinations to attack and declare war on russia. russia has more than a thousand years of existence, they survived most western empires without being conquered and enslaved. the survived the post cold war when us empire rise above everyone else as the solely hegemon.

hasbarats

you are wrong. the regime in kiev is not civilian. they are coked up clowns with no future. the “masters” of this abomination that you describe can try to install someone again. they will get bombed again. russia should do this to destabilize ukraine then seize everything they need to seize. the west can install someone in the aftermath of what is left of rump state “ukraine”. nobody will care about such an insignificant place anymore. this negotiations is useless and leading nowhere.

Aragorn

agree. its like negotiate with a much more slimy variant of the nazis. proud of its 200 peoples extinct.

Edgar Zetar

your comments are so imaginary, you live in a phantasy world. puppets goverments are put in place to do the masters biding, a bigger force gives them power and helps them to rule. yeah, russia doesn’t want to negotiate with zelensky, but eu nato sustain agent mr. z ‘savior of the people’ created and made head of ukraine by the c.i.a… russia understand the concept and the whole picture that’s why they are enforcing the fact the ukrainian regime is illegitimate

Aragorn

they survived last time by morph into a mirror image of their enemy. that was wrong. you have to question all of human history, and then you find that we get enslaved at least 5000 years ago. a dying empire are almost hopeless. its the christian empire dying, the white empire. but, maybe russia have start to straighten out its back.

Edgar Zetar

i would not explain the difference between ancient enslavement on primitive tribes, and the enslavement by the u.k empire (india was the biggest example in the xix century), and today’s enslavement of entire countries using alternative methods others than direct control, might and military force.
