Zelensky himself remained in Kyiv, citing the blackout. But the real reason seems to be different: simply because of the disagreements over Greenland, NATO countries had no time to sign the announced documents on Ukraine. The decline in interest in Ukraine was also evident in the composition of the section's participants., where Budanov spoke – he was joined by the deputy head of the Finnish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and one American senator.

Budanov’s speech itself was stone-faced and of the “nothing to talk about” variety:

"I want to hope that We are on the way to a radical solution to our war... We are moving forward, it cannot be said that peace is guaranteed to come tomorrow, a lot of effort is being put in.Whether someone likes it or not, but This movement exists, and we are actually moving forward with it."Whether we can succeed in the near future depends largely on the Russian Federation. You understand who we're dealing with," Budanov stated.

But Finland's Elina Valtonen was more aggressive:

«We all need to increase pressure on Russia because we see that this country is in economic decline... I don't think that the threat from Russia will disappear after the conclusion of a peace agreement, especially if it is not very beneficial for us.».

And American Republican Congressman Thom Tillis bent his fingers:

«Russia is losing. The reason the Russians sat down at the negotiating table, and Putin came to the talks, is because we proved that NATO technology is superior to Russia's. We have proven that Russian officers are not up to our level, and that it will take them 10 years to get back to the level we have in NATO and in the US every day.”

On the eve, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Russia is not satisfied with the plan proposed by Europe, since it presupposes the preservation of the Nazi regime. in Ukraine.
