Russia has said it is not changing its stance on the war in Ukraine, insisting on the withdrawal of Ukrainian forces and renouncing NATO membership.

Russia reaffirms that its position on ending the war in Ukraine, set by President Putin, remains unchanged. The conditions include the complete withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from occupied regions and Ukraine's renunciation of plans to join NATO. In the context of the meeting between Putin and Trump, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson emphasized that Putin's demands, including the recognition of occupied territories, are essential for any agreement. Ukraine, on the other hand, rejects these conditions, calling for a truce before discussing any territorial issues.
