Russia-Ukraine war live: Starmer warns Putin over ‘games’ as he prepares to present peace plan to world leaders | Ukraine




Key events

Mikhail Kasyanov, Vladimir Putin’s first prime minister and now an opponent of the Russian president, said Moscow was only interested in a conditional ceasefire, reports the PA news agency.

He told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme:

He rejected this proposal for an unconditional ceasefire, he wants conditional, he wants a ceasefire on his terms.”

Asked whether Putin would accept peacekeepers, Kasyanov said:

I don’t believe this, but he could accept – if his terms and conditions are accepted, for instance the stop of military supplies (from the west) – he could agree to just Indians and Brazilians and other friendly countries, troops from those countries but not from Nato nations or from Europe at all.”

He added that western sanctions were having an effect on Russia’s economy, and would get worse by the end of the year, saying:

By the end of the year, he will be a different Putin and would be more willing to negotiate.”
