Putin at Eastern Economic Forum calls Ukraine airspace warnings 'state terrorism,' says chance for peace exists
Speaking at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Vladimir Putin said Russia and Ukraine must primarily negotiate an end to the war between themselves, while other countries including the United States and China are ready to support. He said there is a chance for a peaceful settlement but described Ukraine's recent warnings about the dangers of Russian airspace for civil aviation as state terrorism that complicates peace talks, and accused Ukraine's Western partners of silence.
