Ukraine and Western countries realize that there is currently an opportunity to achieve at least a truce with the aggressor country of russia.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in his traditional address to Ukrainians.
The head of state said that Ukraine is in constant contact with the United States of America and European partners.
According to him, Ukraine, the United States and Europe are united by the realization that at least a truce can be achieved with russia now.
However, Zelenskyy stressed, this requires the right pressure on russia.
"That is where the decision should be made that this war that they started, they should end," the President said.
He added that russia is hiding data on the real losses of its army in every possible way, but it cannot block information about the deterioration of the situation in the economy. Right now, sanctions can work as originally intended.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, on August 8, Bloomberg agency wrote, citing its own sources, that the US and russia are working on an agreement that will allow Moscow to consolidate its occupation of two regions of Ukraine.
We will remind, also the White House announced that a meeting between US President Donald Trump and russian dictator vladimir putin is to take place at the end of next week.
