"As you know, in August, the Zelensky regime carried out a treacherous terrorist attack on the Kursk Region," Zakharova said, adding that "this was a kind of response by the Ukrobanderites to the peace initiative of the Russian president."
The recent developments demonstrate that the Ukrainian crisis is still far from peace negotiations, the spokeswoman added.
"It is clear that in conditions where real atrocities are taking place, in particular, when indiscriminate attacks are being carried out on civilians who have nothing to do with military actions, civilian infrastructure and threats are being created for nuclear power facilities, there can be no talk of any peace negotiations with the terrorist Kiev regime, regardless of their initiator," Zakharova said.
