Zelensky is confident that only negotiations can end the war in Ukraine. He said he was ready to personally sit down at the negotiating table with Putin.
“I am ready for negotiations. I have been ready for the last two years. And without negotiations, we cannot end this war,” Zelensky said.
The head of state added that negotiations between Ukraine and Russia would continue, as this is a chance to stop the death of civilians.
“All the people who think that this dialogue is superficial and that it will not solve anything simply do not understand that this is very valuable … I cannot tell you about the results of these negotiations, but we are losing people, innocent people every day. Russian forces have come to exterminate us, to kill us. And we have demonstrated the dignity of our people and our army, we are able to strike a powerful blow, we are able to strike back,” Zelensky replied.
However, he stressed that Ukraine must use every chance to end the war, otherwise it could escalate into a larger conflict.
“We must use any format, any chance to be able to agree on the possibility of a conversation with Putin. But if these attempts fail, it will mean that this is a third world war,” the president emphasized.
