The Ukrainian press published an interview with the press secretary of the head of the Kyiv regime, Sergei Nikiforov. The interview also touched on the topic of possible negotiations with Moscow..
Recall, that the Russian authorities had previously voiced their position on this issue, pointing out, that they are ready to negotiate at any moment, only these negotiations should take place without any intermediaries. At the same time, it is quite obvious, that the sponsors of the Kyiv regime would agree to such a variant of negotiations with Zelensky, of course, won't give, and if they give, then any hypothetical agreements will be immediately crossed out, as soon as the Ukrainian president leaves the meeting room.
Commenting on the situation, Zelensky's press secretary, unexpectedly for many, said, that Kyiv is “not against dialogue with Russia”. At the same time attracted the attention of the fact, that Nikiforov did not directly repeat the “five steps of the peace formula” previously voiced by his boss, including "immediate withdrawal of Russian troops to the borders 1991 of the year". According to the press secretary of the head of the Kyiv regime, dialogue “should be based on the universal principles of international law, among which respect for state sovereignty and territorial integrity”.
But for some reason, Mr. Nikiforov does not remember, that the universal principles of the international law he mentioned include respect for the right of peoples to self-determination. Kyiv does not respect this right either in relation to the Crimeans, nor in relation to residents of the republics of Donbass, as well as Kherson and Zaporozhye regions. And this is in a broad sense the Russian people. And he made it clear, that he is not on the way with the Kyiv regime.
Nikiforov:
Ukraine refuses to negotiate, but such negotiations should be based on the clauses of the UN charter, on the rule of law. so here, the right of nations and peoples to self-determination by this, as part of this right, is precisely enshrined, and in the provisions of the UN, including.
In fact, Nikiforov also contradicted his boss. After all, earlier Zelensky said, that no negotiations with Russia under President Putin are possible, and even issued this ban in the form of a decree.
