Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that talks with Ukraine were possible, but not with President Volodymyr Zelensky, whom he labeled "illegitimate" due to his expired term under martial law. Putin suggested that any other Ukrainian representatives could lead negotiations. He also claimed that the conflict could end in two months if the West ceased supporting Kyiv, asserting that without financial and military aid, Ukraine would collapse in a month or two. This comes amid ongoing calls for peace talks, including from US President Donald Trump, though no direct communication has occurred between Trump’s team and Moscow.
