Chinese state television CCTV reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin told his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping in a phone call on Friday that Russia was ready for high-level talks with Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin told his Chinese counterpart: "The United States and NATO have long ignored Russia's reasonable security concerns, repeatedly reneging on their promises and challenging Russia's strategic line to the east. We have been pushing for the deployment of troops.
According to The Independent, President Putin's remarks came as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Moscow would be ready for talks with Kyiv only after Ukraine surrendered.
"Moscow does not want neo-Na%is to rule Ukraine," he said. Russia's foreign minister said on Friday that Russia wanted the Ukrainian people to be free and to have the opportunity to decide their own future.
