Vladimir Putin admitted the possibility of reaching a peace agreement with Ukraine, suggesting that there are contacts between the two countries at the level of Russian and Ukrainian intelligence services.
CNN Portugal commentator Sónia Sénica analyzed the Russian leader's speech, concluding that, despite the opening words, little has actually changed in the position of the Russian Federation.
The article's title underlines that Putin continues not to accept that the real obstacle to peace is the Russian position, suggesting that the Russian president's statements can be interpreted as a communication maneuver without substantial changes in his posture.
