    >**Ukraine’s cross-border incursion into Russian territory was required to persuade the Kremlin to begin a “fair negotiation process,” the Ukrainian presidential adviser said on Friday.**

    >Ukrainian soldiers entered Russia’s Kursk region on August 6, making their largest incursion into enemy territory since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of its neighbor in February 2022.

    >Presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak said Kyiv has no interest in occupying Russian territories but has to force Moscow to start talks on Ukraine’s terms.

    >The assault in Kursk, which marks the first invasion of Russia by a foreign force since World War II, has changed the narrative around the campaign waged by the Kremlin against Ukraine.

    >“We need to inflict significant tactical defeats on Russia,” Podolyak wrote on the Telegram messaging service.

    >“In the [Kursk](https://tvpworld.com/79915269/ukraine-sets-up-military-office-in-occupied-kursk) region, we clearly see how the military tool is objectively used to convince the Russian Federation to enter into a fair negotiation process.”

    >Senior Ukrainian officials have repeatedly said Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity should be fully respected in any peace agreement.

    >On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine in a major escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War, which started in 2014.

    >The invasion, the largest conflict in Europe since World War II, has caused hundreds of thousands of military casualties and tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilian casualties.

    >According to media reports, Moscow now controls about 18% of Ukrainian territory.
