US Vice President J.D. Vance said that Russia continues to kill people in Ukraine without achieving significant military results. He stressed that Moscow refuses any bilateral or trilateral negotiations with the Ukrainian side, hindering the establishment of peace.

This is reported by Fox News.

J.D. Vance has expressed a harsh assessment of Russia’s actions in the war against Ukraine. According to him, Russian troops have achieved only minor successes on the front, but have suffered heavy losses among personnel.

“You ask what has changed? I think the reality on the ground has changed, where the Russians are killing and losing a lot of people while achieving virtually no results,” he said.

He stressed that the United States remains committed to the search for peace, but peace agreements are only possible with the participation of both sides of the conflict. In his opinion, Russia systematically avoids any contacts with Ukraine – both bilateral and trilateral, where US representatives could participate.

“We remain committed to peace, but it takes two parties. And unfortunately, as we’ve seen in the last few weeks, the Russians are refusing to participate in any bilateral meetings with the Ukrainians. They are refusing to participate in any trilateral meetings where President Trump or another member of the administration could sit at the negotiating table with the Russians and the Ukrainians,” he added.

According to Vance, the events of recent weeks confirm that Russia is not interested in a peaceful settlement, continuing to harm civilians and military personnel.

By the way, US President Donald Trump has sharply criticized Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, stating that despite massive attacks on Ukrainian cities, Moscow is suffering reputational losses and making almost no progress on the front .

As a reminder, US President Donald Trump expressed his disappointment with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and named the conditions under which Russia would lose the war against Ukraine.

As reported, US President Donald Trump made a number of high-profile statements during a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the main of which was the admission that Russian leader Vladimir Putin “let him down.” The American president openly admitted that he expected an easier path to ending the war in Ukraine thanks to his own contacts with the Kremlin, but the situation turned out to be much more complicated.
