President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he wants to work directly with the U.S. president-elect Donald Trump because "there are different voices” from people around him.
He said this in an interview with Sky News.
So, when asked what he thinks about the U.S. president-elect, Zelenskyy replied that "we have to work with the new president" in order to "have the biggest supporter".
"I want to work with him directly because there are different voices from people around him. And that's why we need not to [allow] anybody around to destroy our communication. It will be not helpful and will be destructive. We have to try to find the new model. I want to share with him ideas and I want to hear from him," he said.
When asked if the Ukrainian President had spoken to Trump, Zelenskyy said it was in September, when he was in New York:
"We had a conversation. It was very warm, good, constructive... It was a very good meeting and it was an important first step - now we have to prepare some meetings."
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in an interview with Sky News, Zelenskyy admitted that Kyiv would agree to a freeze on the war if the unoccupied part of Ukraine was protected by NATO.
