Asked whether Trump was right to assert that the world is now much closer to peace, Peskov said that <em>\u201ccertainly\u201d<\/em> was the case.<\/p>\n<p>During his joint press conference with Zelensky, Trump said the deal was 95% ready, even though he personally didn\u2019t like to measure progress in percentages. <em>\u201cWe\u2019re doing very well,\u201d<\/em> he added. <em>\u201cWe could be very close.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Peskov said Trump is yet to brief Putin on the details of his latest talks with Zelensky, which the two leaders agreed would happen in a phone call soon.

When asked later whether the US had a \u2018Plan B\u2019 should its mediation fail, Zelensky said that Russia should be the party thinking about a backup, because allegedly <em>\u201cRussia\u2019s \u2018Plan A\u2019 is war.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When asked about the remarks, Peskov said Kiev should heed Trump\u2019s warnings that the situation on the front was getting worse for Ukrainian troops every day. He stressed that <em>\u201cRussia is seeking the suspension of the military conflict in the context of achieving its objectives.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Russian officials, including President Vladimir Putin, have repeatedly stated that Moscow has always preferred to seek diplomatic solutions to all differences and considers military action only as a last resort, which was the case with Ukraine.
