Nope. I've said already few times (the first time, I think, sometimes around 2-4 March), that this war is going to be decided on the battlefield.

With other words: Putin is negotiating in a (vain) hope the Ukrainians are going to accept his conditions. Not because he would be convinced that negotiations are a solution.

He's not going to accept any kind of Ukrainian conditions as long as the RFA still has any kind of chance of achieving at least one or another 'useful result'.
