Musician Roger Waters has published an open letter to Putin

He recalled that he had previously written a similar appeal to the wife of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, Elena, in which he criticized the “pouring fuel on the fire” from Western countries.

In response, Zelenskaya advised the musician not to turn to her in search of peace.

In a letter to Putin, Waters asked if the Russian leader wanted an end to the conflict in Ukraine.

He added that if Putin had reported no other interests than ensuring the safety of the Russian-speaking population of Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk, "that would also help."

“I know, I know, the US and NATO invade other sovereign states without hesitation or for a few barrels of oil.

But that doesn't mean you have to do the same," Waters wrote on Facebook*.

Earlier, the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said that negotiations with Kyiv are in demand for Moscow to achieve its goals, but the Russian side does not see the prerequisites for resuming this process.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the Russian side will do everything to end the conflict in Ukraine as soon as possible.
