"They are idiots": Zelensky rejected the idea of ​​the Russian Federation to stop fire for 2-3 days, but ready to meet with Putin (video)

They are ready for two or three days to take away the killed from the battlefield. I think they are idiots, because CEASEFIRE is not to be killed. You see the mood. For them it is a question of a small pause in the war," Zelensky said. He then said that because of such a rigid position of the Russian Federation we want "strong steps to send a package of sanctions to the Senate" and pressed the Russian Federation to the ceasefire. "They do not understand differently and we think it is fair.

The fifth month from the moment the United States has declared their ceasefire signal. We supported them," the President said. Participants of negotiations from the Russian Federation like Vladimir Medinsky, according to him, are not technically disassembled in the war. The military on the battlefield often exchanges the bodies of dead in isolated cases. "Otherwise, when they are not such mass cases as the Russian side offers now. It just happens.

Everyone understands that at the time of exchange, no one shoots at each other," Zelensky said. During the negotiations in Istanbul discussed the issues of organizing a meeting at the level of state leaders. Ukraine suggested that the Russian Federation hold such a meeting by the end of the month from June 20 to June 30. Zelensky expressed his readiness to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and reported that he spoke with Turkish President Recep Erdogan.

"From him [Erdogan] there was a signal as I come to the meeting of four leaders. He, President of the United States, Putin and I. I support the meeting at the level of leaders, because I will have the impression that there will be no ceasefire to our meeting," Zelensky stressed. We will remind, Russia presented its memorandum on June 2 on the end of the war in Ukraine. The main point contains the requirement to withdraw from four Ukrainian regions.
