This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with ABC News, reports UNN.
To end the war, an agreement requires third parties who are willing to put pressure on the aggressor. We are ready for a meeting, for everything that America offers. We support everything that President Trump is saying now, because we believe that he can put pressure on the Russians.
The President admitted that Ukraine does not like just a ceasefire without security guarantees, but it is also supported.
Do we like just a ceasefire without security guarantees today? No, not really. But do we support it - yes
The President stressed that Ukraine was not going to surrender to Putin and is not ready for ultimatums.
We were not going to surrender to Putin and we are not ready for ultimatums. We want an end to the war, we are ready for a ceasefire, for a specific ceasefire that the American side offers, which we saw as a guarantor, and then control of the ceasefire and as a mediator
The President believes that Ukraine has come very close to the moment when it can force Russia to end the war.
We have come very close to the moment when we can force Russia to end the war. At least stop it. We are very close to this, we feel it. Our operation "Web" in the Russian Federation, although they are angry, but they understand everything. They understand that if there are such cases with 20 thousand missiles, etc., then we will count on our own strength. And what is our strength? Not to allow us to be killed, not to allow us to be bombed. That is, then we will develop this direction...
Zelenskyy stressed that Kyiv urgently needs strong assistance from the United States.
The unity of the United States with Europe is needed, and still put pressure on Putin. He does not want to end the war, but he can end it through the pressure of partners. In my opinion, this gives a chance
