Russian Strikes on Ukraine Raise Doubts About Moscow’s Peace Intentions

The escalation of military actions on Ukrainian territory by the Russian Federation continues to pose a significant challenge for the global community.

Recently, the United States issued a sharp protest against new missile and drone attacks that have resulted in destruction of civilian infrastructure and loss of innocent lives.

US representative at the UN, John Kelly, emphasized that these actions not only violate international norms but also cast doubt on Moscow’s genuine commitment to peace in the region.

Meanwhile, Russia insists it is prepared for negotiations, provided there is thorough preparation and clear framework.

Diplomatic efforts have yet to yield convincing results, as unresolved issues complicate reconciliation efforts between the parties.

The international community urges concrete actions and de-escalation; failure to do so may lead to further sanctions and political pressure on Moscow to accelerate the cessation of hostilities.
