from my friends, from different ukrainian cities. air sirens, etc. it means that the war has not slowed down at all, it is continuing. i just had a talk with a chief of ukrainian delegation on this, and he was saying as well, that he is super early to think that something is changing. but still, i think that any talks are better than an absence of talks. so i do hope that, maybe, he will change something, but let s wait and see. look, people in ukraine, they want the war to stop, but they are very frustrated with the idea that any negotiation means giving up anything to russia, because they feel that this was an entirely unprovoked war. what is the sense, as far as you can tell, on the russian side? amongst russian people, about
don t care about california. but we do. on november 8th, 1973, the stand with us. top story leading the news was the high stakes diplomatic peace talks happening between two nations at war. israel and egypt were meeting for initial negotiations to try to end the young keyport war. it was a huge deal. the war had claimed thousands of lives by that point. the peace talks led the news that night ahead of another historic domestic crisis that was playing out before the american public. the watergate special prosecutors today finally found
these negotiations. initially, this was a special military operation, that was supposed to be concluded very fast. so, how does this go over with the russian population? i think it s really hard to talk about, to russian people, because russian people are different, and part of the society don t support these special military operations, or don t support this war, since the beginning. and they understand that with the negotiations, they take place because russia is nakedly seeding in ukraine. the part of russian society which has been supported this special military operation, i think they are confused because they were told that russia is going to demystify crane and probably take over kyiv, and now they hear that, probably the russian army is not going to take kyiv, so they are
used to regroup, and then when russia had gained the upper hand, and had thousands of ukrainian troops surrounded at gunpoint, then vladimir putin was ready to come to the negotiating table. it s a war that killed five and a half thousand people, the worst in europe in two decades. plunging relationships between the west and russia to a new low. today, a glimmer of hope, that ukraine s war might be stopped. it s president visibly weary after 16 hours of talks with the man he met coldly, and blames for the crisis, russia s president putin. they agreed to a cease-fire, and a withdrawal of heavy weapons. at the end, it was mr. putin who is smiling. it s not the best night of my life, he said, but we have agreed on the main issues. the u.s. and others say, this is just the first step. what matters most of all, is actually actions on the ground,
negotiations with the aim to win the time to regroup, to refresh, to take more ammunitions to their troops. it seems to be more likely. but certainly, in any case, even if there is one chance from 100 that it is a real negotiation, we want peace, we want to stop this awful war in our territory, we want to stop the killing of our women and children. so we will try to use any chance possible. but i am not very optimistic about this peace negotiation. it is strange, when they are having a peace negotiation, and at the same time they continue bombing, shelling, and even increasing during the last day s attacks. let s talk about something that john kirby, the pentagon spokesperson said earlier today in the united states.
