Any peace agreement without Ukraine will lead to “dead solutions”, said Volodymyr Zelsky’s president when he rejected the upcoming meeting between US President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin.
Trump will meet Putin on Alaska on Friday, a summit that experts consider to be a potential breakthrough to end the Russian Ukrainian War.
Zeletskyy said that Ukraine “will not give Russia any awards for what it did” and added that “Ukrainians do not give tenants”.
Zeletskyy, while publishing a telegram statement, said the territorial integrity of Ukraine, anchored in the constitution, must be unegeothabitual and emphasized that permanent peace must include the Ukrainian voice at the table.
The Ukrainian President touched the anxiety of the country that a direct meeting between Putin and Trump could marginalize Kiev and European interests. He said as he quoted AP, “” Any solutions that are without Ukraine are at the same time a solution against peace. They will not bring anything. These are dead solutions will never work. “
Previously, Ukrainian officials stated that Kiev would be accessible by a peace agreement that would de facto recognize Ukraine inability to regain the lost territory.
What did Trump said?
Meanwhile, Trump said he would meet the Russian President to discuss the end of the war in Ukraine.
“It seems logical that our delegation flew simply through Bering’s Strait, and for such an important and expected summis of the leaders of both countries held on Alaska,” Russian state agency of RIA quoted Putin’s foreign affairs advisor, Yuri Ushakov.
Trump responded to reporters in the White House in front of his mail and confirmed that any agreement would probably include “some exchanges of territory”, but did not provide any details.
Trump added that his meeting with Putin would come before any discussion about the session concerning Zelenskyy. In his previous statement, Trump agreed to meet Putin, even if the Russian leader would not meet Zeletskyy.
