Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia's national interests are the main priority, even with respect to US mediation efforts concerning Ukraine. He emphasized that these interests take precedence over any external mediation.
Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a renewed ceasefire, mediated by the US, requiring Hezbollah to cease fire and withdraw from southern Lebanon. New pilot zones controlled by the Lebanese Armed Forces are a key element of the deal.
Lebanon is days away from crucial military-security talks with Israel in Washington, aiming to establish a ceasefire and discuss a security agreement. The US mediation faces challenges due to Hezbollah's arms and recent US sanctions on Amal movement officials.
Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed the end of the humanitarian ceasefire in Ukraine, reiterated Russia's openness to US-mediated dialogue, and discussed economic stability measures and upcoming presidential diplomatic engagements.
Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir stated India sought US mediation for a ceasefire after Operation Sindoor. This claim contrasts with US lobbying records. These documents reveal Pakistan's extensive engagement with American officials during the same period. India launched Operation Sindoor following a terror attack. The operation targeted terror infrastructure.
The senior Russian official still said it would be wrong to deny that "at the very least, the current US administration, led by Donald Trump, is trying to do something in this respect"
