Ukraine expects from Russia full-fledged negotiation process, instead of language of ultimatums, – Presidential Office of Ukraine

Adviser to the Head of the President’s Office Mykhailo Podoliak:

– Any war inevitably ends with negotiations. Ukraine heard the negotiating position outlined in Moscow. They know our view on the negotiating format and our negotiating position.

Therefore, their comments that we allegedly refused to negotiate are just part of their tactics.

They are trying to drive negotiations into a dead end before they even begin. It is clear that a different approach is needed. Negotiations must be based on common sense and be such that a fair solution can be worked out in the interests of the people and the national statehood of Ukraine.

By their resistance, Ukrainians have proved that driving us into a dead end is an unrealistic ambition.

The lie of Russians that they allegedly had the order to stop is refuted by the very reality that the whole world saw on Saturday night. And this morning. The fighting was fierce, at maximum intensity.

Precisely because President Zelenskyy categorically does not accept any unacceptable conditions and ultimatums for Ukraine. Only full-fledged negotiations.
