I don't want to play games with the question of how to end the war through negotiations. For us, this is a reality. For us, this war is a big problem. A great danger for Europe, for everyone, for the whole world.
He added that he is ready to meet with the Russian dictator for negotiations on ending the war.
I don't play games with Putin. I am ready to meet, I am ready to talk, but on a neutral platform. I would invite Putin to Kyiv, but why? I am ready to meet in a neutral territory, but not in Russia and not in Belarus. Not even necessarily neutral, but not Russian and not Belarusian. Because they are allies in this war. Belarus is a passive aggressor, that's true. Because we were attacked from the territory of Belarus.
