Kyiv • UNN
The President of Ukraine announced readiness to sit at the negotiating table to achieve peace. Among the first steps are the release of prisoners, a ceasefire in the air and at sea, as well as the signing of an agreement on minerals and security.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine is ready to sit down for negotiations as soon as possible to bring about a reliable peace. He also noted the efforts of U.S. President Donald Trump and added that "the time has come to do everything right," reports UNN.
I want to emphasize once again that Ukraine strives for peace. None of us wants an endless war. Ukraine is ready to sit down for negotiations as soon as possible to bring about a reliable peace. No one wants peace more than Ukrainians. My team and I are ready to work under the strong leadership of President Trump to achieve lasting peace
The President of Ukraine emphasized that Kyiv is ready to work quickly to end the war.
... the first steps could include the release of prisoners, an immediate ceasefire in the sky: a ban on missiles, long-range drones, bombings of energy and other civilian infrastructure – and an immediate ceasefire at sea, if Russia does the same. Then we want to quickly go through all the subsequent stages and agree with the U.S. on a strong final agreement
He assured that Kyiv appreciates how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence.
... we remember that turning point when President Trump provided Ukraine with "javelins." We are grateful for this. Our meeting in Washington, at the White House, on Friday did not go as expected. It is unfortunate that this happened. The time has come to do everything right. We would like future cooperation and communication to be constructive
Regarding the agreement on minerals and security, according to the Ukrainian leader, Kyiv is ready to sign it at any time and in any convenient format.
We see this agreement as a step towards strengthening security and reliable security guarantees, and I sincerely hope that it will work effectively
