“We do not denounce them. We need to work with the Minsk agreements, there are no others. But we must understand that we cannot carry out elections in our territory in the form in which they exist, in the presence of Russian tanks, armored personnel carriers, Russian generals, and Russian officers. This is nonsense, it is impossible to do, and it is necessary to speak about it publicly, openly, ”Danilov said.
At the same time, the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council stressed, Ukraine is in favor of ending the war.
On June 16, the first meeting between Vladimir Putin and Joseph Biden in ten years took place in Geneva, now as presidents of the Russian Federation and the United States, respectively. The talks lasted about three hours.
As a result, the leaders signed a single document – a joint statement on strategic stability.
The leaders of the countries did not hold a joint press conference. Each of the presidents separately answered questions from the press, summing up the summit.
In particular, during the press conference, Putin said that Russia allegedly has only one obligation Ukraine – to promote the implementation of the Minsk agreements.
US President Joe Biden, in turn, during a meeting with the Russian president, stated his support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.
