Moscow regards the topic of negotiations to be irrelevant now, since there is neither a basis nor any foundation for these talks, Peskov told reporters.
"Regarding this 'peace formula' that was mentioned, what you need first is to simply open your eyes and look at the facts. They are trying to find a 'peace formula' without Russia’s involvement. This action is absurd at the very least, and quite honestly, it has no potential for any results," he maintained.
In November 2022, Ukrainian President Zelensky unveiled his 10-point peace initiative, which included an all-for-all prisoner swap with Russia, security guarantees for Ukraine and a return to the pre-2014 borders.
Moscow has repeatedly said it was open to peace negotiations as long as Kiev recognizes the territorial gains Russian forces have made since the launch of the special military operation in Ukraine in February 2022.
