As Russia continues to make key gains, the Ukrainian leader said he is prepared to do everything possible to bring an end to the conflict through diplomatic means.
The war in Ukraine will “end sooner” once Donald Trump becomes US president than it otherwise would have, Volodymyr Zelensky has said, adding he is prepared to do everything possible to bring the conflict to an end through diplomatic means.
Speaking with the Ukrainian public radio station Suspilne, Zelensky admitted to a difficult situation on the battlefield, where Russia has been pressing its advantages in manpower and weaponry. “I didn’t hear anything that goes against our position,” he said, adding that he would only talk directly with Trump and not through emissaries.
Russia continues to make gains at key spots along the frontlines of eastern and southeastern Ukraine, moving closer to key hubs like the city of Kurakhove. Russia claimed on Saturday it had captured two more eastern settlements in the Donetsk region, although there was no confirmation from Ukraine.“There is a slow but steady pressure and advance of the Russians,” he said, adding that they had been waiting for the delivery of some weapons for 12 months.
