The Blame Game: Russia and Ukraine's Stalled Peace Efforts

Russia and Ukraine continue to exchange accusations over the faltering peace process, highlighting the complexities of resolving their ongoing conflict. Moscow has accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of obstructing diplomacy, while Kyiv claims Russian President Vladimir Putin is determined to prolong the war.  The issue of Crimea remains a major sticking point, with Zelensky refusing to recognize the peninsula as part of Russia, a stance that has drawn criticism from various quarters. Meanwhile, Russia's recent missile and drone strikes on Kyiv have intensified tensions, leading Ukrainian officials to assert that Moscow's actions undermine peace efforts.  Both sides appear entrenched in their positions, with Russia demanding concessions and Ukraine insisting on a just peace. As the conflict drags on, the prospects for meaningful negotiations seem increasingly bleak.  !
