Comment by Presidential Aide Yuri Ushakov: The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, responded positively to the appeal made by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, regarding the fate of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers who are trapped and essentially surrounded in the Kursk region, the area where the Ukrainian Armed Forces invaded. The signal from the U.S. President has been heard, and our President has guaranteed the Ukrainian soldiers their lives and dignified treatment, provided, of course, that Kiev agrees to give the order for its troops to lay down their arms and surrender. I would like to emphasize that the President of Russia is paying close attention to all issues raised during the restored dialogue with the current U.S. administration. I would also like to reiterate that such a dialogue has been established and is regularly conducted through a variety of channels.
