Ukraine will not agree to frozen conflict with Russia - Zelensky
He said this in a video address to the Wall Street Journal CEO Council Summit, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.
"We will not go to a frozen conflict. I came to the presidency when there was Minsk-1, Minsk-2. There were respective documents that were violated, so I can say that these documents were not serious. However, there were arrangements on paper. It was a frozen conflict. I am against it. We will definitely not have such a document," Zelensky stressed.
According to him, Ukraine did not withdraw from the Minsk agreements, unlike Russia, which did so after Vladimir Putin announced a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. "Ukraine will definitely not go into such a diplomatic swamp again," Zelensky said.
On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops have been shelling and destroying critical infrastructure and residential areas of Ukrainian cities, towns and villages using artillery, multiple launch rocket systems, and ballistic missiles.
The invaders staged mass terror in the temporarily occupied territories.
