On July 24, 2026, Russia — Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia believes U.S. President Donald Trump is sincere in his efforts to end the Ukraine war and will wait for Washington to put forward new proposals.

Peskov blamed Ukraine's European allies for prolonging the war, claiming that Russia accepted a U.S. proposal that Ukraine rejected.
