Talks with Russia off table - Zelensky’s chief of staff

That’s according to the head of the Ukrainian President’s Office, Andriy Yermak, who made the statement via Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"Russia's dirty blackmail looks very primitive. Dirty manipulation involving the Zaporizhia NPP, dirty intimidation involving the Kakhovska HPP, a dirty terrorist attack against Ukrainian prisoners of war in Olenivka, as well as a dirty war against the civilian population and terror amid defeats on the battlefield... A dirty state named Russia with rather primitive constructions," Yermak emphasized.

According to the chief of the President’s Office, "everyone has long stopped being afraid of Russia because they are weak cowards who dream of negotiations to stop their collapse."

"The whole world is seeing this. There will be no negotiations. And everything dirty will remain with the Russian Federation in isolation, in which it will definitely end up," the head of the Zelensky’s staff emphasized.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, on Sunday, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba, discussed with the head of the U.S. State Department Antony Blinken the false narratives, spread by the Russian Federation, about the "dirty bomb" plot, as well as the supply of air defense equipment to Ukraine.
