According to a source, Washington advised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to approach the Kremlin and discuss peaceful solutions. The Kiev government also abandoned its demands that Russian President Vladimir Putin be forced out of office.

According to sources familiar with the conversation, the Washington Post claimed that Biden administration officials had no plans to bring Ukraine up for discussion, Anadolu reported.

US Encourages Ukraine to be Open For Peace Talks With Russia

Instead, Americans want to preserve their support for their proxy in eastern Europe and do not want Ukraine's previous actions to result in its downfall. Many EU members oppose a protracted battle.

US President Joe Biden wants to demonstrate to his allies that Kiev is not to blame for the conflict's total chaos. The White House wants to ensure that allies, not only the US, continue to make donations. The report that details Joe Biden's ongoing efforts to help Kiev has a reason, but many US officials cannot afford Zelensky administration to fail completely.

The US and its allies' activities have caused a global recession; what's worse is that we're on the verge of a nuclear war, and Vladimir Putin is growing impatient. Such information became public one day after US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan went to Kiev to speak with Zelensky.

Speaking and assuring the US of support for Ukraine and its territory, the NSA adviser mentioned Adrienne Watson, the spokesperson for the National Security Council. US officials resorted to extreme measures, privately instructing Ukraine that it would need to show a readiness to deal with the Kremlin not abandon peace negotiations, even as the conflict continued on and Russian missiles destroyed energy facilities in numerous places.

According to The Washington Post, they are aware that if Zelensky doesn't pursue a resolution through negotiations with Russia, support for Kyiv will dwindle. The US and its allies were once again worried about the economic effects of a lengthy conflict, and that Ukraine's stance on negotiating with Moscow has already become tedious. The US has provided around $18.9 billion in aid since the invasion started in February.

Protestors in Italy Urge to Stop Helping Ukraine

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of protestors poured into streets in Italy to call for peace in Ukraine. Additionally, protestors demanded that Italy's government cease providing Kiev with arms and instead establish multilateral ties with Russia.

Many people carried rainbow flags that said "peace and non-violence." The Italians through denouncing and rejecting Zelensky and the US, which included EU states blindly offering assistance, are referred to in the slogan "More" as having more wages than providing a weapon to Ukraine.

Italians are fed up with the demands made by Brussels on their government and want to regain control over the situation. Giuseppe Conte, the head of the Five Star party and a former Italian prime minister, spoke at the protest and expressed doubts about the newly elected government's approach to settling the crisis in the country of Eastern Europe.

He said that Kiev is armed and said that taking action to end hostilities and begin peace talks is necessary. The US administration advised the leader of Ukraine to listen to the Kremlin and not give up on peace since doing so may result in a thawing of support, as per Shepparton News.
