Mike armstrong reports. >> Reporter: there was no confirmation but also no denial. Vladimir putin, visiting one of his few allies friday, belarus, said there is a need for peace talks with ukraine, but he added that they should reflect realities on the ground.

According to a reuters report, four sources close to putin say he is willing to "freeze the war." that would be on the condition he keeps what his troops have taken. Right now, russia controls about 18% of ukrainian territory and is fighting to take more. Now, the first question about this potential putin proposal is whether it's real. Well, a report citing multiple kremlin sources, even anonymously, isn't likely to have come out of the kremlin without putin's approval. The university of toronto's oral braun. >> It's highly unlikely. This is a putin regime. It is very tightly controlled. >> Reporter: the other question is motivation, the proposal could be a trial balloon to feel things out.
