Russia says it welcomes any effort aimed at 'peaceful solution' to Ukraine war
Russia on Monday said it welcomes efforts aimed at finding a 'peaceful solution' to the Ukraine war by any country, after Indonesia's Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto floated a peace plan.
'We welcome the efforts of any states that are aimed at a peaceful solution to this conflict,' Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko told state news agency TASS. 'As far as I know, we do not have any official information on this but we heard of it from media reports.'
The plan, presented at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore on Saturday, calls for an immediate cease-fire, the creation of a demilitarized zone to be monitored by the UN, and referendums in 'disputed territories.'
