According to RT, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov recommended that people seek information from direct, original sources when following developments in negotiations between the US and Russia regarding the conflict in Ukraine, and warned against the spread of fake news.

In an interview with RIA Novosti news agency on April 22, Mr. Peskov was asked to comment on a recent article in the newspaper.Financial Times, which confirmed that Moscow is ready to stop fighting in the Ukrainian conflict along the current front lines.

“There is a lot of fake news being published now, even from reputable media outlets, so people should only listen to information from direct sources,” Mr. Peskov emphasized.

According to the article ofFinancial TimesOn April 22, Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly proposed freezing the conflict at the current front line during a meeting with US special envoy Steve Witkoff earlier this month in St. Petersburg.

On the same day, Russian President Vladimir Putin's foreign policy adviser Yury Ushakov confirmed that Moscow is preparing for Witkoff's next visit this week. This will be the special envoy's fourth visit to Russia since Washington began diplomatic efforts on the conflict in Ukraine.

US President Donald Trump recently announced that he would soon announce a plan to end the conflict in Ukraine. “I will give you all the details over the next three days,” he told reporters on April 21, adding that the US had “very productive meetings on Ukraine and Russia.”

However, the Kremlin noted that while discussions are ongoing, the peace process is unlikely to be completed in the short term. “This is a very complex issue and perhaps should not be constrained by rigid time frames,” Peskov told reporters on April 22.

The Trump administration has repeatedly expressed frustration with the pace of the peace process.

“If we can’t end the war in Ukraine, we need to move on to the next step,” US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters last Friday.

Throughout the conflict, Russia has consistently said it is ready to negotiate with Kiev. However, the talks should be based on facts on the ground and address the root causes of the crisis – such as Ukraine’s ambitions to join NATO. The Kremlin has stressed that it will not accept a temporary ceasefire, as it would only allow the West to rearm Kiev.
