According to Ukraine it was uncovering the evidence of atrocities such as Bucha that ended any chance of peace talks early doors.

Uncovering mass graves of civillians is likely to do that mind you.

    To provide context, we had a large number of videos coming out early in the war showing civilians taking up arms and otherwise impeding the invasion. They aren't legal combatants by international law, but they're not exactly civilians that got caught in the crossfire: they put themselves there.
