Russian delegation arrives in Belarus for talks with Ukraine

Peskov said the delegation included representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Defense and other departments, including the presidential administration, RIA reported.
“We will be ready to start these negotiations in Gomel [Homiel],” Peskov said, according to RIA.
The Kremlin has continued to put out messaging that Russia would send representatives to the Belarusian capital of Minsk to talk with Kyiv, despite its military’s continued and unprovoked assault on Ukraine.
The Kremlin has claimed previously the Ukrainian side had countered with a proposal to meet in Warsaw and then dropped contact.
Top Ukrainian officials and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky have expressed willingness to talk peace with Russia, reports CNN.
