Russia has resorted to manipulation, saying that the Russian Federation has "no preliminary requirements" to start negotiations with Ukraine.

Details: The National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) considers as manipulation the statement of the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Andrey Rudenko: "Ukraine has adopted a law prohibiting it from negotiating with the Russian Federation. This is their choice, we have always declared our readiness for negotiations that were interrupted through no fault of our own. There are no preconditions on our part."

Another manipulation, according to the Center [for Countering Disinformation], is the statement of the member states of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), made during the adoption of the draft resolution of the UN General Assembly: "The fight against the glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to the escalation of modern forms of racism."

The CSTO members said that they allegedly consider it essential "not only to honour the memory of those who died for peace on Earth but also to defend the principles of the UN Charter following the results of World War II," according to the Center for Countering Disinformation. 

Background: On 8 November, Andrey Rudenko, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia, said that Russia had no preconditions for starting negotiations with Ukraine.
