The world is still waiting from Russia a clear answer to the proposals for a ceasefirethe Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj announced on Monday evening. Moscow, according to him, did not comment on direct negotiations in Istanbul, Turkey, which could take place this Thursday, TASR reports.
“Ukraine has always supported diplomacy. I am ready to come to Turkey. Unfortunately, the world still has not received a clear answer from Russia to numerous proposals for a ceasefire,” He said in a regular evening statement Greeny, which on Saturday with French, Germany, Britain and Poland leaders agreed on a proposal of at least 30-day unconditional stopping of the fighting.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had previously confirmed after a phone call with Greats that he was ready to host direct negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, designed by Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin.
Greenya expressed his willingness to meet Putin in person, but only if Russia will agree to a 30-day ceasefire proposal. Moscow has not commented on the participation of Putin or the composition of the Russian delegation yet, the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has only said that Russia is generally ready to conduct serious talks on long -term war solutions in Ukraine and the ultimatum does not accept from Western countries.
“Moscow was silent all day to the proposal for a direct meeting. Very strange silence,” He said Greeding, saying that Russia continues to sharpen and attack, but he would have to end this war. “The sooner the better. There’s no sense to continue killing,” It was delivered by the Ukrainian head of state.
The way to Istanbul and Possible participation in Russian-Ukrainian negotiations is also considered by US President Donald Trumpwho will be visiting the region at that time to visit Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. He will go to Turkey’s talks if they think that it will be possible to make progress. Trump also thinks that Russia will proceed at a proposal of a 30-day ceasefire with which Ukraine and its European Allies came up.
Greeding in his words considers important that Trump this meeting of Russia and Ukraine representatives supports. According to the President, Ukraine would like the White House chief to find time and come to Turkey.
