Russian President Vladimir Putin is not sincere about peace talks with Ukraine while he is taking the war to a new level of “barbarism” by trying to turn off the lights of civilians, a top US diplomat said on Saturday.

“Diplomacy is obviously everyone’s objective but you have to have a willing partner,” she told reporters. “And it’s very clear, whether it’s the energy attacks, whether it’s the rhetoric out of the Kremlin and the general attitude, that Putin is not sincere or ready for that.” “Putin has taken this war to a new level of barbarism, taking it into every single Ukrainian home as he tries to turn off the lights and the water and achieve what he couldn’t on the battlefield,” Nuland said.“It is not for Nuland to teach the world – only the United States and NATO combined destroyed more energy networks than the United States destroyed by itself,” Zakharova said on the Telegram channel, pointing to the 1999 attacks on Serbia.

Where do these people get their news from it’s hilarious …

Why does this nation so apologetic and evidently extreme apologists for the US hegemony. Your reporting is biased. Have you interviewed Russian sources like competent media house like Aljeezera does?

Did you say Putin was barbaric to turn the lights off? Then Ramaphosa & Co must be the Masters of Babarism because we've not had stable power gor 15 years!

Lol, find and report real news

But the fake news said that Putin is dying of cancer… Which one is it, is it on his death bed or is he taking the war to a new level of barbarism 🤣🤣🤣🤣

In that case he's not the only barbarian turning lights off, the US government has been turning lights off for it citizens for a while with green energy scam so has the South African government with deliberate destruction of infrastructure...

Ukraine will be totally destroyed if it doesn't go to the negotiations table.

Tell the US diplomat to tell Nayo and the fight promoter to stay away from Ukraine

This is one of the propagandist media houses in 🇿🇦

You are misleading an innocent people, please take your responsibility serious

Lol please SABC , don't follow American versions of things, Putin has had so many speeches where he explains himself, I have not once heard you tell his side of the story. I mean your better then other news agencies, but I see your not fully liberated.

But Eskom does that to us SouthAfricans daily! 😬

Propaganda….. garbage 🗑

You are always reporting in favour of Slava cocaine and the West. You are a biased media favouring the wicked globalists.

So why do you not quote him and instead you regurgitate those sentiments and pass them off as not yours by claiming their were said by an unknown diplomatic person ?

Putin is a evil Marxist terrorist His track record proves it. What he has done is pure sadist, and the West sits back and watches..

They should be grateful he hasn't obliterated Ukraine by now
