Russia claims it prefers a diplomatic and political resolution to the war in Ukraine, but accuses Ukraine and Western nations of rejecting all proposals for dialogue.
Russian officials, including Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova and Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, argue that the West has never genuinely pursued peace, instead fueling the conflict by arming Kyiv.
