"I think the Russian president has made it clear that there are no circumstances under which Russia can consider a negotiated peace settlement with the existing Ukrainian regime, that it's a terrorist regime. He specifically said: who negotiates with terrorists?" Ritter said.

Scott Ritter: Trump Needs to Decide Whether He Supports Russia or Terrorism
16:14 GMT 04.06.2025 (Updated: 16:21 GMT 04.06.2025) After being briefed on the Ukrainian security services' involvement in last week's rail and bridge terror attacks, President Putin asked how Russia could continue negotiating with a regime that openly engages in terrorism. Sputnik asked former US Marine intelligence officer Scott Ritter to break things down.
"I think the Russian president has made it clear that there are no circumstances under which Russia can consider a negotiated peace settlement with the existing Ukrainian regime, that it's a terrorist regime. He specifically said: who negotiates with terrorists?" Ritter said.
"He's put the onus on the United States, on President Trump to make a decision as to how they want to proceed - to be viewed by Russia as supporters of terrorism, or to be viewed Russia as a partner for peace," the observer emphasized.
