According to Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for the Kremlin, the US could change its foreign policy toward Ukraine. However, it is still unclear whether this will happen and, if it does, how it will play out. In his speech, he said that the U.S. foreign policy could change, but that any real changes would not be seen until after January. Peskov also talked about how complicated things are and stressed that the ongoing war in Ukraine can’t be solved right away because of the huge political, military, and diplomatic problems that need to be solved.
Peskov also talked about what former U.S. President Donald Trump said about peace, implying that Trump’s views might change when he returns to office. Peskov said that political language often changes after a candidate takes office. This means that the things a candidate said during the campaign might not be how they actually act once they are in office. Russia keeps a close eye on what’s going on in U.S. politics, and this comment shows that they think the U.S. position on Ukraine might change once the new government is fully in place.
Peskov also didn’t like that the U.S. was involved in the war in Ukraine and said that the U.S. was making things worse. It was his argument that the U.S. could help end the war but instead supports measures that make it last longer. This commentary talks about the ongoing tension between Moscow and Washington. Russia says that the U.S. is making things worse in Ukraine, but the U.S. says it is a key player in any answer.
Peskov also said that Russia is carefully watching all news from the U.S., especially now that the election results are in for president. Peskov made it clear that Russia is closely watching the situation and studying what U.S. leaders say and do, even though he acknowledged that U.S. politics are a domestic problem. He said that Moscow would wait to see what these comments really meant before deciding what to do. They were looking for real actions instead of empty words.
Lastly, Peskov said again that Russia is open to conversation, making it clear that Moscow is still ready to have talks. Nevertheless, he also said that the U.S. has not been interested in continuing talks, which has made Moscow angry. The Kremlin says that they are ready to talk things out diplomatically, but they think that the U.S. is not willing to deal honestly right now. This shows the larger global standoff, in which both sides are set in their ways and any chance of a real conversation depends on policy and leadership changes in Washington.
Peskov’s words show that Russia has a lot of doubts about the U.S.’s determination to end the conflict in Ukraine. However, Russia is still open to negotiating in the future, based on what the U.S. does in the coming months.
