Kiev’s unwillingness to compromise to lead to more territorial losses — Russian negotiator

Ukraine’s unwillingness to compromise in talks with Russia will only lead to more territorial losses for Kyiv, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing Russian Presidential Aide Vladimir Medinsky, who heads Moscow’s delegation to negotiations with Ukraine.

"We want peace," he pointed. "But if Ukraine keeps being driven by the national interests of others, then we will be simply forced to respond," Medinsky added.
