Zelenski provokes Putin for peace talks on four eyes
| Zelenski’s comments become a fact after Putin rejected Ukraine’s request and European allies to be signed 30-day trucebut added that Russia is ready for direct conversations with Ukraine. According to Putin, the delegations of both countries should meet on Thursday in Turkey. |
Although European leaders insisted that there could be no negotiations until Putin did not agree to a truce, Donald Trump had put pressure on Zelenski to agree « immediately » to negotiations this week in a post in Truta Sauzel. Shortly thereafter, Zelenski made a public statement with his new proposal.
We expect a complete and lasting peace agreement, starting tomorrow, in order to create the necessary diplomatic basis for negotiations.
Volodimir Zelenski. President of Ukraine
« There is no point in continuing with the killings. I will expect Putin in Turkey on Thursday. Personally, this time I believe the Russians will not seek excuses, » Zelenski said in a statement.
Ukraine to accept negotiations immediately, Trump insisted, waiting for a truce and going in person, replied Zelenski
The two leaders have not talked directly since Russia began a full -scale invasion of Ukraine. There are also no public conversations between Moscow and Kiev since March 2022, shortly after the war began.
Trump wrote in « Trut Sauchlel » that Ukraine must « do the meeting now !!! »
| Trump pointed out that « President Putin does not want a peace agreement with Ukraine, but rather he wants a meeting on Thursday in Turkey to negotiate the ending of the bloody bath. Ukraine must agree immediately. At least they will determine if it is possible to truce, and if it is not, the Euro-leders and the United States will have an idea of how things are. » |
The insistence on a 30-day truce was made on Saturday during a visit to Kiev by leaders of the UK, France, Germany and Poland, who, along with Zelenski, had a telephone conversation with Trump before the joint press conference.
