Washington believes it’s too early to discuss peace talks between Moscow and Kiev since neither side is ready for such negotiations, the National Security Council (NSC) Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby told Fox News on Sunday.
When asked whether US President Joe Biden should “push” Russia and Ukraine towards peace talks, Kirby said instead it was “time for the US to continue to support Ukraine.” Washington’s goal is to make sure Kiev “gets to determine how victory is decided” in the ongoing conflict and “on what terms.”
“We do not want to see Ukraine defeated by Russia and that is why we are continuing to rush aid and assistance,” the senior NSC official said, adding that the US alone has already allocated $7 billion in aid and assistance to Ukraine.
