“Everyone knows Zelensky’s statements that he will not negotiate with Putin.
In this regard, I will just remember the well-known phrase - never say never, ”TASS quotes him.
Zelensky, in an address to the leaders of the G7 countries, again announced that he did not want to engage in dialogue with the Russian authorities regarding the settlement of the situation in Ukraine.
Prior to this, the President of Ukraine said that Kyiv is ready for negotiations with Moscow, but if there is another president in Russia.
As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted, Putin's phrase that the longer negotiations drag on, the more difficult it will be to agree, must be taken seriously.
