UN chief Guterres says peace talks between Ukraine and Russia impossible now

The peace talks between Ukraine and Russia are impossible now, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said in an interview with Spain's El Pais published on Tuesday.

"Unfortunately, I think that the talks on peace are impossible now," he said.

According to him, "both sides are convinced that they can win."

"We are in dialogue with both sides as far as possible to solve specific problems. The most important initiative was the export of grain from Ukraine... And now I do not see the possibility of an immediate ceasefire and peace negotiations," Guterres stated.

He also stressed that UN's main goal is to establish "a just world in accordance with international law and the UN Charter."
