MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The West and Ukraine are using statements about negotiations as a tactical maneuver to take a break and restore their forces, since Russia holds the advantage in its special military operation, Russian presidential aide Nikolai Patrushev said on Sunday.
"During the special military operation, we currently have the advantage. The West and Ukraine are interested in restoring their forces; they need a break. Therefore, all these statements have precisely the tactical nature of a break. In reality, if we look at their actions, they are not taking any steps to hold peace negotiations," Patrushev said on air of Russia's Channel One.
Patrushev added that Volodymyr Zelensky, during his time as a legitimate president, had banned himself from any negotiations with Russia.
