Zelenskyy announces plans for new meeting with russia with participation of partners

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that a meeting of Ukraine, russia, the United States, and representatives of the European Union and Great Britain is being considered in Turkey, the Vatican, or Switzerland.

He said this during a briefing after Donald Trump's call, which was broadcast by Suspilne.

"We are considering, in any case, the possibility of a meeting of all teams. We want it at a high level," he said.

According to the President, in particular, the option of a meeting of the United States, Ukraine, russia, and representatives of European countries is being considered.

"Such a meeting could take place in Turkey, the Vatican, or Switzerland. We are currently considering these three venues. All three countries, all three venues, they are all good. I don't want to talk now about where is more comfortable. The question is not about comfort. The question is who will be able to organize this with an appropriate result after the meeting," the President said.

He added that, in his opinion, there will be an answer regarding the venue in the near future.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, US President Donald Trump, after a two-hour telephone conversation with russian leader vladimir putin, said that Ukraine and the aggressor country of russia would "immediately" begin negotiations on a ceasefire and an end to the war.
