What does Vladimir Putin really want in Ukraine? The question arises after a new reversal of the Kremlin. Sunday, February 20 in the evening, France announced that Presidents Putin and Biden had accepted the principle of a meeting. Finally, the next morning, Moscow says that all this is premature. What should we think ?

On the Ukrainian side, about fifteen houses ripped open by shells and blown up by explosions are witness to new incidents on the front line. The images are the same on the other side, among the pro-Russian separatists. In this armed conflict, there may be a diplomatic breakthrough. On the night of Sunday February 20 to Monday February 21, theElysée announced that at the initiative of Emmanuel Macron, a summit will be held between Vladimir Poutine and Joe Biden. The information is confirmed by the United States, which says it is keeping the door open for a diplomatic solution.

But the road to peace is still long. Monday morning, the Kremlin denies, speaks of a “premature” announcement and even accuses Ukraine of having destroyed one of its border posts. The information war continues. The Ukrainians, they broadcast a video where they accuse the Russians of firing shells on their own positions in order to accuse the Ukrainians.
