It is not necessary to talk about a convergence of opinions on the Ukrainian issue, but the very fact of the dialogue between Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is very positive. This was stated in an interview with Rossiya-1 journalist Pavel Zarubin, the press secretary of the Russian leader, Dmitry Peskov.
This is how Peskov commented on today’s telephone conversation between Putin and Scholz.
“The conversation took place at the initiative of the German side, and this is, of course, its importance. There are attempts to compare the positions of political will to recognize this position first-hand. This is something that cannot fail to cause satisfaction. The discussions were quite detailed, mainly on the Ukrainian topic, frankly… But, of course, it is not necessary to talk about coincidence of opinions here. Therefore, of course, there are quite deep disagreements, but the very fact of dialogue is very positive.” – said Peskov.
