The Kremlin called the call “constructive.” Putin and pontiff discussed, in particular, the topic of war in Ukraine, which Russia unleashed.
In a conversation with Pope, Putin once again accused Ukraine of supposedly terrorism and sabotage in the context of a recent collapse of bridges in the Bryansk and Kursk regions of the Russian Federation.
Putin also announced the alleged interest in achieving peace in a political and diplomatic way, while in a conversation with US President Donald Trump, according to the head of the White House, he promised to give a “very decisive” response to the attack of the SBU through the Russian rear of the Russian Federation. On the same day, the American embassy in Kyiv warned US citizens about the possible massive shelling of Ukraine by the Russian Federation.
In a conversation with a pontiff, Putin added that for the “final, fair and comprehensive” resolution of the crisis, as the war in Ukraine is called in Ukraine, it is necessary to eliminate its root cause.
In addition, Putin thanked the pontiff for his willingness to provide the mediation of the Vatican in the ceasefire in Ukraine. But before that, the illegitimate Russian president refused to discuss the world with the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky.
