"We don't have any additional details on this," Peskov said in response to questions about Trump's words during a briefing on November 7, as reported by TASS. He accused Ukraine of the fact that the war is still not over.

"The main thing that is currently slowing down the settlement process is the pause that arose due to the reluctance of the Ukrainian side to follow the path of political and diplomatic settlement, and due to the provocation of the Kyiv regime by the Europeans to continue further hostilities," Peskov assured. The Russian spokesman was also asked about the prospects of a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump in Budapest. "You can hardly try to predict anything here.

Any predictions will most likely be groundless," he said. Peskov emphasized that the summit at a certain stage will be necessary for both sides. "But this summit must be preceded by very intense, scrupulous expert work," he added.
