“Zelensky did not see the point on the trip,” said one of the sources of The Washington Post.
Representatives of European states and the United States were not publicly explained that it is important for Ukraine to at least send a delegation of high -ranking officials to Istanbul, including the head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak and Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga, according to the material.
Among other things, US Presidential Message Steve Witcoff convinced Ukrainians that participating in direct negotiations with Russia is profitable for both parties.
Like, if Ukraine’s representatives will be and not, it will result in the consequences for Moscow, and if both sides will be, it can bring the ceasefire closer, WP two diplomats said.
The Ukrainian official who spoke with the newspaper on the conditions of anonymity stressed that Zelensky still insists on meeting with Putin in Turkey.
“Why personally with him? Because a serious conversation about the termination of murder and the end of the war should happen with who ultimately makes a decision in Russia,” he said.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said earlier that on Thursday he has a planned meeting with Turkish President in Ankara, but if the Kremlin head Vladimir Putin agrees to fly to Istanbul, then he and Erdogan will fly to him.
US President Donald Trump said he does not know if Putin will appear in the negotiations on the war that should be held in Turkey.
