Russia is 'open to negotiations' with Ukraine, says Kremlin
"Russia as a whole is open to the negotiation process, but first we need to understand how ready Ukraine is," Dmitry Peskov, press secretary for Russian President Vladimir Putin, said.
In a rare and high-stakes diplomatic exchange, Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reconnected for the first time in nearly two years, engaging in a detailed and frank hour-long conversation. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterised the call as a candid discussion where both leaders outlined their positions on the Ukraine conflict. Putin, speaking in Russian through a translator despite his German proficiency, reiterated Moscow’s demands for Ukraine’s neutrality, demilitarisation, and the recognition of Russian-annexed territories. Scholz, facing a political crisis at home, pressed for a withdrawal of Russian troops and reaffirmed Germany’s strong support for Ukraine. The timing of the call, coinciding with key international events, marks a pivotal moment in Russia-Germany relations as diplomatic tensions continue to mount.

U.S is inaugurating a new NATO missile defense base in Redzikowo, Poland, 150km from Russia's Kaliningrad Region. This second Eastern European base joins NATO's broader missile shield system. Kremlin spokesman Peskov denounced it as containment of Russian military potential, promising countermeasures. While Poland celebrates strong US alliance, Russia maintains NATO's expansion threatens its security and denies aggressive intentions toward Western Europe.

The Kremlin has strongly refuted recent claims suggesting that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had spoken in recent days, calling the reports "pure fiction." Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov dismissed the allegations, which had been reported by The Washington Post and Reuters, labelling them as a "complete lie." According to these reports, Trump had supposedly urged Putin not to escalate the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Peskov mocked the rumours, describing the information as "false" and criticised the quality of such reports being published by reputable outlets. He further stated that, as of now, there were no concrete plans for Putin to engage in talks with Trump, despite earlier reports hinting at potential discussions between the two leaders.

In a stunning turn of events, Russia has refused to congratulate Donald Trump on his victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov made it clear that Russian President Vladimir Putin had no plans to offer congratulations to the former U.S. president, citing the current hostile relationship between the two nations, exacerbated by U.S. support for Ukraine. While Russia remains open to dialogue, the Kremlin is watching closely for any changes in U.S. foreign policy once Trump officially takes office.

In a fiery exchange reflecting the deepening rift between Kyiv and Moscow, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov labelled Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's recent remarks as “delusional.” This statement came in response to Zelensky's assertion during his address to the UN Security Council that Moscow could be forced into peace on Ukraine’s terms. Peskov vehemently rejected this notion, warning that attempting to coerce Russia into peace is a "fatal mistake" that will have serious repercussions for Ukraine.

Russia launched its first-ever intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) at Ukraine, targeting critical infrastructure in Dnipro. This unprecedented strike marks a significant escalation in the conflict, following Ukraine's recent attacks inside Russian territory using U.S. and British missiles. The long-range missile, capable of carrying nuclear warheads, heightens tensions and raises concerns about potential nuclear confrontation, with Putin's altered nuclear doctrine adding to the uncertainty.

Russia has issued a chilling nuclear warning with President Vladimir Putin revising the country's nuclear doctrine to include responses to attacks from non-nuclear states supported by nuclear powers. The move follows U.S. President Joe Biden's decision to authorise Ukraine to use long-range missiles against targets in Russia. The updated doctrine now justifies nuclear retaliation for conventional threats, highlighting concerns over weapons like hypersonic missiles and strike drones. As tensions escalate, Kremlin officials have framed this shift as a clear warning to NATO and the West against supporting aggression toward Russia.
