Kremlin says peace in Ukraine is still a very long way off

The Kremlin on Saturday said that the United States was in a ‌hurry to clinch a peace deal to end the Ukraine war but that getting to any sort of agreement was a very long way off because the issues were so complicated.

Russia and Ukraine ⁠confirmed on Friday that they had agreed to a U.S.-brokered three-day ceasefire that will run from May 9 to May 11, and U.S. President Donald Trump said he hoped it would be extended.

"It is understandable that the American side is in a hurry," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told state television reporter Pavel Zarubin.

"But the ‌issue ⁠of a Ukrainian settlement is far too complex, and reaching a peace agreement is a very long way with complex details," Peskov said.
