The Press Secretary to the President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Peskov, addressed public calls for Russia to press the advantage in Ukraine. He stated that such a path is not on the agenda and should not be considered important for any forward strategy. He emphasized that negotiations are handled by professionals and that trust in their judgement is essential. He pointed out that the Russian side is fully aware of the current situation and that emotions should be set aside, especially in discussions that involve opposing sides.

According to Peskov, the stance of the Russian Federation remains coherent and consistent. He noted that there has been no change in policy and that active work continues while emotions should be reserved for adversaries to prevent clouding judgment.

On February 24, the Russian President announced a decision to launch a special military operation in Ukraine, a move framed as a response to requests for aid from the heads of the Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republics. This decision led to broad sanctions from the United States and its allies, which were announced subsequently as part of ongoing diplomatic and economic pressure.

The main events of the past month have encompassed statements, sanctions, casualties, and images from the war zone as the conflict in Donbass and Ukraine continued to unfold, with ongoing coverage within the project reporting on these developments.

Earlier in the month, talks between Russia and Ukraine were held in Istanbul, signaling a potential pause or recalibration of positions as negotiators explored paths toward possible resolution or adjustment of terms.

Observers note that the situation remains fluid, with official statements stressing the importance of measured diplomacy, continuity in policy from Moscow, and a cautious approach to negotiations even as the broader regional dynamics evolve.
