On June 1, the Russian side said on May 30 that the Russian delegation was ready to start a second round of negotiations with Ukraine on June 2, hoping that the two sides could discuss the content of the memorandum on the peace agreement. Ukrainian officials said on May 31 that because Russia has not made public the content of the memorandum, the Ukrainian side speculates that there is a high probability that it is no different from the previous statement of Russian officials, and it may be difficult to implement the content of the memorandum in the future. Sergei Reshchenko, adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said on May 31 that Russia had not made public the text of the ceasefire memorandum, making it impossible for the parties to assess its feasibility. In the end, this plan is likely to be no different from the previous statements of Russian officials, so it is difficult to promote the implementation of the content of the memorandum. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on the same day that Ukraine, Turkey, the United States and other partners have not received specific information from Russia on the specific agenda of the talks.
