Numerous countries have already offered mediation in the Ukraine war. Moscow welcomes "the efforts of all countries to find a solution" But experts say the willingness to negotiate is feigned.
Peace plans and offers of mediation have come from Indonesia, China, Brazil, France, the Vatican and several African states. Russia is ready to "listen very carefully to all proposals that allow regulating the situation in Ukraine," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in May, according to the Interfax news agency. The Indonesian proposal is similar in principle to the settlement on the Korean Peninsula.
