Ukraine should have realized long ago that it is absurd to even talk about the possibility of its victory on the battlefield, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, TASS reports.
"The Kiev should have realized long ago that it is absurd to even talk about any prospects of the Kiev regime's victory on the battlefield. And the sooner the Kiev regime itself realizes this, the sooner some prospects will open up," the Kremlin spokesman said.
The spokesman disagreed with the words of Ukrainian top military commander Valery Zaluzhny that the conflict around the country has reached a stalemate. The top Ukrainian defense official had earlier mentioned this in connection with the Ukrainian troops' inability to achieve a breakthrough on the front.
