Peskov expressed hope that the U.S. would study the root causes of the conflict in Ukraine

The Kremlin hopes that the USA will look into the root causes of the Ukrainian conflict. This was stated by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on February 24.

"We hope that Washington will fully analyze the root causes of the Ukrainian conflict - this is what we tried to draw the attention of our opponents in Europe," Peskov said in response to a request to comment on US President Donald Trump's words that Russia is not to blame for the conflict in Ukraine.

The Russian leader's spokesman emphasized that without understanding the root causes of the crisis, it is impossible to qualitatively deal with its settlement. At the same time, Peskov pointed out that Moscow sees Washington's attempts to sort things out.
