Zelensky allowed the end of the hot phase of war without the occupied territories but with the condition
According to him, an agreement on termination of hostilities can be concluded if those territories under the control of Kiev will be taken "under the NATO umbrella". Later it will be possible to negotiate a diplomatic way to return the occupied lands. "If we want to stop the hot phase of the war, we need to take NATO's umbrellas that is under our control. We must do so quickly. And then the occupied territories will be able to return it diplomatic to Ukraine," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
Separately, the Ukrainian president added that the ceasefire should assume that Russian President Vladimir Putin will no longer go to a new step of aggression and thus capture even more territories. NATO forces, for its part, will have to "immediately" cover the part of Ukraine controlled by Kiev, otherwise Moscow will decide to another step of aggression. The interview was recorded after Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election.
Volodymyr Zelensky stressed that Ukraine should work with the new white house head in order not to lose the largest ally. "I want to work with him directly because there are different voices around him. And so we do not need to allow anyone around our communication. It will not benefit and be destructive. We have to try to find a new model. I want to share ideas with it and I want to hear him, " - continued Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The last President of Ukraine spoke with an American politician in September, during a visit to New York. Then the dialogue was warm, kind and constructive. Now new meetings are being prepared. We will remind, on November 27 it was reported that Ukraine can push for peace talks from the Russian Federation in a few months, which was written in The Washington Post. According to journalists, during peace talks, Ukraine can be forced to abandon part of their territory in favor of Russia.
