Zelensky: Negotiations with Russia are impossible until complete de-occupation of our territories

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that negotiations with the Russian Federation will be possible only after the complete liberation of all Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories.

"No sanctions can be lifted. We cannot discuss anything with Russia until it gets out of here. It is possible after the war, we can talk about lifting some sanctions, about reparations, payments from their side, diplomacy. We can involve the leaders of any countries, any international institutions in such negotiations, but only after Russia vacates all our territories," Zelensky told CNN in an interview.

As reported, Zelensky believes that Russia does not understand the words of peace but feels the power on the battlefield well.
