Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is not interested in ending the war and is doing everything to disrupt the movement towards peace, making some demands, limiting his room for maneuver with tough sanctions against Russia and support for Ukraine, said on Friday the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation of the National Security and Defense Council Andriy Kovalenko, commenting on Putin's statements, writes UNN.
Regarding Putin's statements - he is doing everything to delay and disrupt the movement towards peace, because he is not interested in ending the war. Therefore, he constantly puts forward some crazy ideas and demands. His room for maneuver can be narrowed through tough economic restrictions for Russia and strengthening Ukraine. I hope that this will become clear if Russia does not cease fire by Easter

Putin proposed to introduce a certain form of temporary administration in Ukraine, allegedly for holding new elections and signing key agreements to reach a settlement of the war, which was reported by Russian news agencies early on Friday.
Putin's comments during a visit to the northern port city of Murmansk came against the backdrop of US attempts to reach a settlement of the war by restoring ties with Russia and engaging with both Moscow and Kyiv in separate negotiations.
A representative of the National Security Council White House, answering a question about Putin's statements about the temporary administration, said that "the management system in Ukraine is determined by its constitution and the people of the country".
