The Russians, however, sent a low -level delegation to Turkey, added Rutte.
“The Russians send a low -level delegation and do not take an opportunity. President Zelensky said:” I am ready to sit at the negotiation table with Putin as soon as the ceasefire is announced, we are ready to negotiate a peaceful agreement. ”
Rutte also expressed his gratitude to the US and the team of President Donald Trump, who, as NATO Secretary General noted, is “focused on reaching peace in Ukraine.”
Recall:
- Kremlin head Dmitry Peskov said that Putin would not go to Istanbul for talks with the Ukrainian delegation.
- In his turn, Volodymyr Zelensky, after landing at Ankara Airport on Thursday, noted that the decision on further steps to negotiate would be made after talking with Turkish President Erdogan.
- At the same time, the media reported that no meeting between Russia and Ukraine has been appointed.
