“The current leadership of Ukraine, headed by the president, is firmly oriented to the West and the USA ... Nevertheless, it is not clear what is constructive. Negotiations with Vladimir Putin and Sergey Lavrov, the exchange of prisoners is a plus. But everything is breaking up on recent statements by Vladimir Zelensky at the UN General Assembly, ”he said.
According to the deputy, after Trump’s words “it will be possible to see some actions on the part of Zelensky and the Ukrainian government towards Russia.”
“But if the president continues to announce the return of the Crimea at all international venues, no US statement or other decisions will allow him to enter into normal negotiations with Russia. Everything is in the hands of the Ukrainian leader, ”said Vodolatsky.
Earlier, Trump noted the progress in relations between Russia and Ukraine and advised Zelensky to continue in the same vein.
