As Reuters reported, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said this on Friday, according to Ukrinform.

He added that Russia would continue pursuing its objectives by military means.

"Yes, (fighting) is not the preferred path, but given the absence of prospects for peace, we will see it through to the end, to total victory. Yet, we will wait for new (U.S.) proposals," Peskov told a state TV reporter who asked if Moscow was willing to wait even longer for the Americans to come up with new ideas when previous efforts had failed.

Peskov said the U.S. side, President Donald Trump, and his negotiators "are sincere in their desire to formulate options acceptable to everyone.”

He added that the U.S.-proposed option had been accepted by Russia but had allegedly been rejected by the Ukrainian side.

The latest trilateral peace talks between Russia, Ukraine, and the United States took place in February, shortly before the United States and Israel became involved in the war with Iran.

This week, senior U.S. and Russian diplomats held a brief meeting in Asia. Russia has for several weeks said it is ready to receive Trump's envoys for talks in Moscow, but no date for the meeting has been announced.

Peskov said the U.S. position was ambiguous because Washington was "continuing to pump Ukraine full of weaponry" while talking about wanting to end the war.

"However, we must leverage this duality in the Trump administration's position wherever it aligns with our interests. And their desire to facilitate a peaceful settlement is entirely in line with our interests," he said.

As reported by Ukrinform, the United States remains open to playing a constructive role in negotiations aimed at ending Russia-Ukraine war.
