Quote: "The question of ending the war must be resolved at the leadership level, but we can see now that the Russians are doing everything to prevent a meeting. Ukraine, unlike Russia, is not afraid of any meetings with leaders. We are ready to work productively, to the maximum…

They must be forced into diplomacy; truly strong sanctions are needed if they [Russia – ed.] do not agree to a diplomatic resolution of this war, if they do not want to end the war. We are counting heavily on strong [sanction – ed.] packages from our partners."

Details: Zelenskyy hopes that “partners will help ensure at least a minimal productive stance from the Russian side.”

He said that “everything must be done so that Russia can no longer avoid the meeting.”

Zelenskyy added that he sees a strong signal from the US, Europe, and other countries willing to help as part of the coalition.
