Putin drew attention to Kyiv's destructive policy

According to the statement, the two discussed the situation on the border of Belarus and Poland, where hundreds of migrants are stuck in near-freezing weather, and agreed on "the importance of a rapid resolution" of the crisis "in accordance with international humanitarian standards."

In regard to the internal Ukrainian conflict, Putin drew attention to Kyiv's destructive policy, which is increasingly based on violent methods, including the use of attack drones, which violates the Minsk Agreement.

The Kremlin statement concluded that Putin highlighted "the destabilizing and dangerous nature of the provocative activity of the armed forces of the United States and a number of other NATO countries in the Black Sea."
