Part 7/9:
According to the President, Russia’s main concessions would include ceasing military operations and agreeing not to annex more Ukrainian territory. He characterized the conflict as a product of poor leadership and "stupidity," asserting that it would not have happened under his presidency.
He indicated that there is no set deadline for concluding the negotiations and that the primary goal is to reach a resolution—"when it's over." The general consensus appears to be that both Ukraine and the international community are eager to see an end to the fighting, considering the devastating human toll.
