President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine will have a limited time period from the beginning of the ceasefire regime until the agreement was reached to end the war with the Russian Federation. This is due primarily to the practice of the Kremlin to constantly violate the arrangements.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in an interview with Time.
The interview was recorded before the negotiations between delegations from Ukraine, the United States and Russia in Saudi Arabia on the approval of ceasefire at sea and ban on blows to energy infrastructure, but the interpreting was published on March 25.
Answering the question whether he expects that the Russian Federation will violate the ceasefire again and again, the head of state said that “it is not even not yet.”
“Since 2014, they (Russians) have constantly violated peace. That’s how I see it. They are about to break it all the time. That is why the window of opportunity is very short between the moment of ceasefire and the moment of reaching the end of the war, ”Zelensky said.
He added that it could be “a very short period: a month, two, three and all.”
“After that, it will be about the moral state of the military. We have 800,000 armed people, ”Volodymyr Zelenskyy added.
The President said that the case is “not only in finance”, because “if we do not have an agreement to end the war, it becomes a frozen conflict.”
“And we cannot continue to live in a state of war. We need to open the borders. Many things need to be liberalized. And we can do it if we sign the contract, ”he explained.
According to the President of Ukraine, if the period between the cessation of fire and the peace agreement is small, “we can only see some violations here and there.”
“It would not be a complete collapse. But if the process is delayed, then everything will fall apart. And we do not know what it will end, ”Zelensky said.
We will remind, on March 25 in Saudi Arabia a new round of negotiations between the US and Ukraine took place. The delegations have already completed the second meeting in Riyardi.
Russia has published a final statement after meeting with US officials in Saudi Arabia. It contains the conditions for a truce with Ukraine at sea.
In addition, Russia will not give the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power station to Ukraine or under the control of other states.
Analysts of the Institute of War Study believe that the agreements in the negotiations of Ukraine and Russia in Riyadh remain incomprehensible and fuzzy, which leaves space for many differences between the parties and calls into question the effective execution of the truce in practice.
US President Donald Trump suggests that Russia and dictator Vladimir Putin are delayed with a ceasefire agreement.
The United Kingdom urged Russia to agree to the unconditional ceasefire with Ukraine. The proposal from London sounded as a result of negotiations in Riyadh between Ukraine, the Russian Federation and the United States regarding the Armistice in the Black Sea and refusing to strike energy.
