Russian President Vladimir Putin has complained that Ukraine does not want to hold "peace talks" with the Russian Federation and has said that he will wait for Ukraine to agree to such talks.

Quote from Putin: "We reached an agreement with them in Istanbul, but they’ve thrown all of that into the bin. And now they’re refusing to discuss anything with us. How can we talk about possible agreements if the other side has no desire to even talk to us? Well, we can wait. Maybe some necessary conditions will eventually arise; we have made our good will known. It is beyond any doubt and won’t change."
