Zelensky said when talks with Putin are possible

Today, negotiations with Putin are possible if they are similar to those regarding the “grain” corridor. Moreover, they should involve mediators. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Ukraine can find a model in which a solution can be found. Such a model was used for the first time in the example of the grain corridor, when Ukraine negotiated not with Russia, but with the UN and Turkey. They, in turn, took the responsibility to negotiate with us and then sign a corresponding agreement with Russia. And that is how it worked: two mirror agreements with the UN and Turkey in between," he said.

Zelensky added that a similar model is applicable to the issue of territorial integrity and energy, as well as in shipping - when countries from different continents prepare solutions to this or that crisis.

And then this document, if it suits Ukraine, should also be discussed with representatives of the Russian Federation. So far, we have only such a model," Volodymyr Zelenskyy summarised.

He also assessed the so-called peace plan for Ukraine, which is proposed by US presidential candidate Donald Trump. Zelensky is sure that it will not work.

If the idea is to give away our territories, then no, it will not solve the issue. It will not work; it will not lead to peace in the world, or between Ukraine and Russia," the Ukrainian leader said.

Zelensky stressed that the only possible negotiations the Ukrainian president sees would be those based on his own peace plan, which includes a full withdrawal from Ukraine, reparations and justice for Russia's war crimes.

The Ukrainian border will be established, further Russian invasion will not entail a new war, and the world will not be afraid that Putin will come back again," Zelensky shared his vision of peace.
