“There will be more telephone conversations. 99% of past conversations between Zelensky and Putin were devoted to the release of our sailors and political prisoners. And on this topic we are ready to talk further, ”Pristayko quotes NEWSONE.

According to him, the Ukrainian side "is ready to talk every day if it is needed for progress in this matter."

He stressed that for the Zelensky team to communicate with Putin is not a “taboo” if it concerns the release of prisoners.

At the same time, Pristayko noted that the heads of state did not agree on a specific date for the next conversation or meeting.

Earlier in Kiev, they said that the key issue of the first telephone conversations between Zelensky and Putin was the release of the Ukrainian military personnel detained after the incident in the Kerch Strait.
