Russian President Vladimir Putin said on the 3rd that the possibility of resolving the Russian-Ukrainian conflict still exists, but whether it can be achieved ultimately depends on both parties involved in the conflict. Putin pointed out at the Eastern Economic Forum plenary meeting on the same day that the key to resolving the conflict is whether Russia and Ukraine can reach a consensus. Putin said that attacking and hijacking a civilian ship and threatening to launch an attack on a civilian aircraft is an “act of state terrorism.” Ukraine's Western allies kept quiet about this and acted as “accomplices in international terrorist activities.” This does not help the peace negotiations to proceed. Referring to Russian-US relations, Putin said that the relevant departments of the two countries, including intelligence services, have always maintained contacts, and he hopes this kind of contact will bring positive results. The Eastern Economic Forum is an important multilateral international platform for Russia. It was held in 2015. The forum opened on the 1st and lasted 4 days.
