«Ukraine is set to hold meetings in the United States aimed at talks to end the war with Russia.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in his traditional video address on December 3.
«We are preparing meetings in the United States. Once the American team returns from Moscow and completes consultations in Washington, Rustem Umerov, Andriy Hnatov, and all those required for the negotiations will continue discussions with President Trump’s representatives,» the Head of State said.
Zelenskyy said he expects updates on the talks in the next few days, stressing that Ukraine and its partners remain in constant communication.
«Everything is now proceeding quite effectively — at meetings in Geneva and Florida, Ukraine was heard, and Ukraine was listened to. And that matters. We expect it will continue exactly this way. A dignified peace is only possible if Ukraine’s interests are taken into account,» Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated.
He believes the world now feels the war can be ended — and urged that ongoing talks be backed by stronger pressure on Russia.
