Zelensky: Negotiations on ending war not held solely because of Russia's position

Negotiations that are supposed to end the war waged by Russia are not held solely because of the position of the Russian Federation.

“All leaders understand why negotiations to end the war are not under way. Exclusively because of Russia's position, which is only trying to intimidate everyone in Europe and continue the destruction of our state. They do not want to look for a way to peace. This is an aggressor who must decide for himself that the war must end,” President Zelensky said in his latest address.

The Ukrainians will continue to fight until we guarantee our state full security and territorial integrity, he stressed.

As reported, on June 16, President of France Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Prime Minister of Italy Mario Draghi, and President of Romania Klaus Iohannis arrived in Ukraine and held talks with President Zelensky.

On February 24, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops shell and destroy key infrastructure, massively fire on residential neighbourhoods of Ukrainian cities, towns, and villages using artillery, MLRS, aviation bombs, and ballistic missiles.
