MOSCOW – The Kremlin said on Friday that what it calls Russia’s “special operation” in Ukraine could end in the “foreseeable future” since its aims were being achieved and work was being carried out by both the Russian military and Russian peace negotiators.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov also said according to Reuters that Moscow understood that some countries that had tried to adopt a balanced position had been subjected to pressure to vote to suspend Russia from the UN Human Rights Council.
The UN General Assembly suspended Russia from the Council over reports of “gross and systematic violations and abuses of human rights” in Ukraine, prompting Moscow to announce it was quitting the body.
