Acting Foreign Minister Andrei Sibiga also issued a statement.

Ukraine supports the call by Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to “freeze” the war.

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine citing a statement by Ukraine’s acting Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga.

“We appreciate the calls by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Putin that it is time to stop the war. It is a realistic, timely, and wise appeal,” Sibiga noted.

He recalled that Ukraine has proposed halting the war along the current front line and moving toward diplomacy, but the Kremlin continues to rule out this clear path to peace.

As a reminder, on July 25, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, during a personal meeting with dictator Vladimir Putin, proposed “freezing” Russia’s war against Ukraine and returning to the terms of the 2022 Istanbul negotiations.
