[Peskov: Russia hopes to resume trilateral negotiations on the Ukraine issue] September 8, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Peskov said at a press conference on September 8 that Russia hopes to resume the trilateral negotiations on the Ukraine issue between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine. Peskov said that Russian troops are advancing on the contact line but are willing to move towards peace at any time, depending on Kiev's choice. He said Kyiv lacks flexibility in conflict mediation and does not really want an armistice. Ukraine still relies on some European countries that also want to strategically defeat Russia. Peskov also revealed that the issue of sanctions has been included in the agenda of conflict mediation negotiations, but it is not the primary issue. Conflict mediation itself is the top issue.
