MOSCOW, November 26. /TASS/. Russia strongly rejects any options for freezing the conflict in Ukraine, as Moscow needs a durable peace, Director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Sergey Naryshkin told reporters following the 20th meeting of the heads of security and intelligence agencies of Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries.
“Russia categorically rejects any proposals to freeze the conflict, whether following the Korean scenario or any other option,” he stated in response to a TASS question.
“We need a lasting and durable peace for many, many years to come. This must be secured first and foremost for us – for Russia, for our citizens. But this peace must also be ensured for the entire European continent,” Naryshkin added.
The SVR chief recalled that the only way to ensure peace is to eliminate the root causes that triggered the Ukrainian conflict.
