Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenskicommenting on the conversation that Russian and US presidents had Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump said that any discussion of Ukraine without the presence of itself “makes no sense”.
However, Volodimir Zelenski said Ukraine would support the US proposal to stop hitting in energy infrastructure for 30 days, which Vladimir Putin has agreed. “Ukraine will support any proposal that leads to a stable and fair peace.”
It is worth noting that Donald Trump has not yet called the Ukrainian president to inform him of the content of his talks with Putin, and Zelenski said he hoped to speak soon.
“I think it will be right to have a conversation with President Trump and we will know in detail what the Russians offered to Americans or what the Americans offered to the Russians.”
He also stressed that Europe should be at the negotiating table and “in terms of European security must be decided with Europe”.
The Ukrainian president emphasized that Putin’s demands to end military aid, exchange of information and mobilize Ukraine seek to weaken Kiev.
“Our allies would not agree to stop the military aid, which I hope will continue. The unconditional or partially unconditional ceasefire would be a positive effect, “he added.
“Russia is preparing for new attacks”
As the Ukrainian president said, “Ukraine sees a new accumulation of Russian forces near the Sumi area of Ukraine.” Russia seems to be preparing new attacks on the fronts of Zaporizia, Sumi and Kharkov in the coming months to exert the maximum pressure on Ukraine.
Zelenski also said that he spoke with German Chancellor Olf Saltz and French President Emmanuel Macron after the Trump-Putin conversation.
“The liberation of all Ukrainian prisoners of war would be a way for Russia to show a truly goodwill in the negotiations,” Ukrainian Predress said, as Putin announced that there would be a short exchange of 175 prisoners of war between the two warriors.
As for the Ukrainian troops fighting in the Russian region of Kursk, he assured that they would remain there while this operation is necessary.
Vladimir Putin received a truce in terms of energy infrastructure in Ukraine at the end of his telephone conversation with Donald Trump, but did not agree on a complete ceasefire.
One hour after the Putin – Trump conversation, alarm sirens and explosions were heard in the Ukrainian capital Kiev, according to French agency reporters.
Kiev authorities have called on residents to enter the shelters due to the risk of Russian air attack, while AFP reporters heard explosions.
