Quote: “The problem is that the US is saying things that really appeal to Putin. I think that’s the whole point – because they want to please him. You know why? To meet face-to-face and achieve quick success. But what they want is just a ceasefire, and that is not success.”
Details: Zelenskyy once again emphasised that Ukraine will not legally renounce its territories or sign any agreements “just for the sake of loud applause”.
Background: The Russia-US talks held on 18 February in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, lasted four and a half hours. According to the Russian side, Moscow and Washington will work to create conditions for a meeting between Russian ruler Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump. Russia and the United States agreed to advance bilateral relations.
