On Tuesday, Ukraine refuted claims that it had been pressured by the West to engage in talks with Russia and reaffirmed its stance that no talks would take place until Russia withdrew from all of the territories it occupies.
The Ukrainian remark was made a few days after a Washington Post article claimed that the United States was pressuring Kyiv to announce its readiness for negotiations. It also coincided with the midterm elections in the United States, which can place Western support for Ukraine under a test.
President Voludmir Zellinski reiterated what he had said about the conditions in Ukraine being “fully estimated” for peace talks before he was to make a speech in front of world leaders attending the United Nations Conference on the Climate Crisis (COP 27).
He continued, “Once again, regaining the territorial integrity, respecting the United Nations Charter, compensating for all collateral damage from the war, punishing all war criminals, and making sure that what is happening is not repeated.”
He pointed out that Ukraine has repeatedly suggested that such talks be held, but “we were always receiving irrational Russian reactions with terrorist attacks, bombing or new blackmail.
” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov repeated Moscow on Monday’s position on Monday’s willingness to hold talks, but Kyiv is the one who rejected it. Moscow has previously stated numerous times that it will not engage in negotiations over territory it claims to have annexed from Ukraine.
One of the most prominent advisers of Zellinski, one of the most prominent advisers of Zellinski said that Western countries are pushing Kyiv to negotiate the terms of Moscow while providing Ukraine with weapons to expel Russian forces from its territory.
We are working to drive the Russian army from our lands. Ukraine receives very effective weapons from its partners, led by the United States.
