At the same time, it is "difficult for Washington to see a bona fide side in negotiations in Russia," said assistant to the US President for National Security Jake Sullivan.WASHINGTON, November 12.

/tass/. The US administration believes that the conflict in Ukraine can be resolved on the basis of the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity, Washington allegedly does not see Moscow's serious attitude to negotiations. This position was stated on Friday at a briefing by the assistant to the President of the United States for National Security, Jake Sullivan.

"It's up to Ukraine to decide when and how they want to negotiate," he said. "We will not put pressure on them, we will not point them out," Sullivan stressed. "We believe in an honest world based on the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity, which <...> they are enshrined in the UN Charter," said the assistant to the American leader.

According to Sullivan, "Russia is doubling its efforts" with the aim of "annexing Ukrainian territory." "This is hardly a sign of a serious mood for negotiations," he believes. Sullivan also made the statement that "it is difficult to see a bona fide side in negotiations in Russia." Biden's aide stressed that Washington intends to provide further military assistance to Kiev in order to ensure it "the best position on the battlefield" so that when the Ukrainian authorities decide to move to diplomacy, they will have "the best position at the negotiating table."

On October 4, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky put into effect the decision of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine on the impossibility of holding talks with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. In turn, on October 31, the Russian leader said that he did not see an opportunity to discuss any agreements with Ukraine while there was no desire on its part. However, as Putin stressed, Moscow's goodwill for negotiations is known and it remains unchanged. The President of the Russian Federation drew attention to the fact that in order to reach agreements, it is necessary to "sit down at the negotiating table and negotiate."

On February 24, Putin announced a special military operation in Ukraine in response to a request from the leaders of the Donbass republics for help. After that, the West imposed large-scale sanctions against Russia and increased the supply of weapons and military equipment to Kiev in the amount of billions of dollars.
