International Desk: Russia has given counter-conditions against the negotiation proposal given by US President Joe Biden to end the war in Ukraine. The Kremlin said talks are possible only if Washington recognizes the four Russian-occupied territories in Ukraine.

Besides, Moscow has refused to accept the conditions given by Biden for the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that withdrawal of troops from Ukraine is not possible now. Peskov also said that military operations in Ukraine will continue.  

At this time, both sides have opened the way for negotiations, Peskov said, President Putin is always ready for any negotiations to protect Russia's interests.

Earlier on Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov expressed his desire to hold talks with the West on the Ukraine issue. On the same day, Biden also announced conditional talks with the French president.

US President Joe Biden says he is ready to talk to Vladimir Putin if the Russian leader truly wants an end to the war in Ukraine. This is the first time he has made such a comment since the beginning of the invasion of Moscow.

"There is a way to end this war," Biden said. In this case, Putin will first withdraw all their troops from Ukraine. But he doesn't seem to do that.'
