Putin suggests interim administration for Ukraine to end war

Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested that Ukraine be placed under some form of interim administration to allow for new elections and the signing of key agreements to reach a resolution to the war, Russian news agencies reported today.

Putin's comments came during a visit to the northern port of Murmansk - amid US efforts to broker a solution to the conflict by restoring ties with Russia and engaging with Moscow and Kiev in separate talks. The Kremlin leader said he believed US President Donald Trump genuinely wanted peace.

Putin's suggestion of an interim administration appears to address his long-standing complaint that Ukrainian authorities are not a legitimate negotiating partner after President Volodymyr Zelensky stayed in power beyond the end of his term in May 2024.

"In principle, of course, an interim administration could be introduced in Ukraine under the auspices of the UN, the United States, European countries and our partners," Putin is quoted as saying in talks with sailors at the port.

"This would be with the aim of holding democratic elections and bringing to power a capable government that enjoys the trust of the people and then starting talks with them on a peace treaty," he added.
He said Trump's efforts to continue direct talks with Russia - in contrast to his predecessor Joe Biden, who avoided contact - showed that the new president wanted peace.

"In my opinion, the newly elected president of the United States sincerely wants to end the conflict for a number of reasons," Putin was quoted as saying.
A spokesman for the White House National Security Council, asked about Putin's remarks about the interim administration, said that governance in Ukraine is determined by its constitution and the people of the country.

European leaders have continued their efforts, pledging after a meeting in Paris on Thursday to strengthen Kiev's military to ensure it is the cornerstone of future security in Ukraine.

France and Britain tried to extend support for a foreign "security force" in the event of a ceasefire with Russia, although Moscow rejects any presence of foreign troops in Ukraine.

Zelensky has rejected any notion that questions his legitimacy, saying Ukraine is legally prohibited from holding elections under martial law and holding a vote under wartime conditions would be impossible in any case. Zelensky has repeatedly accused Putin in recent days of wanting to continue the conflict.

The Trump administration has proposed a new, more expansive minerals agreement with Ukraine, according to three people familiar with the ongoing negotiations and a summary of a draft proposal obtained by Reuters.

Trump has said that a minerals deal would help secure a peace agreement by giving the United States a financial stake in Ukraine's future.

In his comments, Putin said Russia was steadily moving forward towards achieving the goals it had set in its operation in Ukraine.

Russia, Putin said, was in favor of "peaceful solutions to any conflict, including this one, by peaceful means, but not at our expense."

“Along the entire line of military contact, our troops retain the strategic initiative,” he said.
More than three years after the start of their full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russian forces now hold about 20% of the country, with Moscow declaring four regions annexed. Its forces have also recovered much of the territory initially lost in a Ukrainian incursion last August into its western Kursk region.

He said Russia was ready to cooperate with many countries, including North Korea, to help end the war, Reuters wrote.

Western and Ukrainian sources say more than 11,000 North Korean troops have been sent to reinforce Russian forces in the Kursk region, although Moscow has not confirmed this.
