ISLAMABAD: Russian Ambassador to Pakistan Albert P Khoro said on Tuesday that Russia has repeatedly emphasized that the main reasons for the long -term settlement for the Ukraine crisis need to be eliminated, not Western ceasefire.

He said that Ukraine does not need a ceasefire to get closer to the peaceful settlement of the conflict, but he “wants to re -group and re -work with” European military and financial support. “

Talking to the media here, the Russian envoy cited statements from leaders of France, Britain, Germany and other European countries, about which Europe and Ukraine need to be militant to Russia to defeat Russia.

Referring to Russian efforts to resolve the Ukrainian crisis, Eleichi said that several important steps have been taken in this regard since February this year.

He said that President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump spoke on March 18 by telephone and agreed that Russia would unilaterally suspend its strikes for 30 days on Ukraine Energy Infrastructure facilities. They maintained, from March 18 to April 17, the KIF government violated the agreement about 130 times.

He questioned: “When Ukraine plans to observe a full ceasefire for 30 days, over the past three months, we have felt reluctant to agree with the Kiev government’s complete dislike and small -scale reconciliation?”

Albert P. Khorio maintained that the Ukrainian crisis needs to end the root causes of the conflict for a long -term settlement, not Western -powered ceasefire.

In early June 14, 2024, he said that Russian President Vladimir Putin presented a concrete plan to achieve peace in Ukraine. The key elements of the project are the withdrawal of the Ukrainian Armed Forces belonging to the new Russian regions (Donetsk People’s Republic, Lohnsk People’s People’s Republic, Zoroz Zezai and Khuserson Obilles), which guarantees Russia’s new facts, requesting Russia’s request for a request for a request.

Regarding President Putin’s recent move to resume Russia-Ukrainian direct talks in Istanbul, he said that Ukraine, under considerable pressure from the United States, eventually accepted the move, though not immediately.

During the May 16 meeting, which lasted for two hours, the Russian and Ukrainian parties presented their views for a peaceful resolution for the conflict. He also agreed to exchanged mass prisoners under the formula “1000 for 1000” formula. The deal was fully implemented from May 23 to 25. As a result, 880 seized Russian servicemen and 120 citizens returned home.

The sides also agreed to exchange detailed suggestions for future possible ceasefire terms. “We expect the talks to continue”. The ambassador praised the US positive role in facilitating Russia-Ukrainian talks in Istanbul on May 16.

Trump’s statement that Kiev’s desire to join NATO was one of the reasons for the conflict, which shows that he understands its main reasons. During a telephone conversation on May 19, President Putin personally thanked President Trump’s mediation efforts.

During a two -hour conversation, the President noted that Russia is ready to engage with the Ukrainian team when developing a memorandum in connection with the future possible peace deal. The envoy said it would include the inclusion of several provisions, such as the principle of settlement, the timeframe for a possible peace agreement, and other issues, including the temporary ceasefire, to reach necessary agreements.

Earlier, Ambassador Albert P Khorio and Belarus Ambassador Andrei Mettleta told the media that preparations are underway to celebrate the day of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEEU), which is observed annually on May 29.

It is an international economic integration organization that includes five member countries: Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
