By India Today Web Desk: The Kremlin on Wednesday launched a scathing assault on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s 10-point peace plan, saying that proposals to finish the battle in Ukraine should bear in mind what it calls “today’s realities” of 4 Ukrainian areas having joined Russia, reported Reuters.

“There can be no peace plan for Ukraine that does not take into account today’s realities regarding Russian territory, with the entry of four regions into Russia. Plans that do not take these realities into account cannot be peaceful,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov mentioned on Wednesday.

The plan predicts the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine’s internationally-recognised territory, which might imply Russia giving up each the 4 areas it claims to have annexed, and Crimea, which it seized in 2014.

Russia has repeatedly mentioned it’s open to peace talks with Ukraine, however sees no willingness to barter on the a part of Kyiv, Reuters reported.
