Ukraine is prepared to discuss the adoption of a neutral status as part of a peace agreement with Russia, but such a pact would have to be guaranteed by third parties and put to a referendum, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in remarks broadcast to Russian media this week. Sunday.
In a video call that lasted around 90 minutes and after the Moscow authorities preemptively warned the Russian media not to report on this interview, Volodymyr Zelensky spoke in Russian at all times, as he has done in previous speeches when addressing a Russian audience.

The president ruled out trying to retake all territory controlled by Russia by force, saying it would lead to a third world war, and said he wanted to reach a “compromise” on the eastern region of Donbas, held by Russian-backed forces. since 2014.
Volodymyr Zelensky also spoke about the fate of the eastern port city of Mariupol, which has been besieged for weeks and has been subjected to prolonged Russian bombardment
He rejected Russia‘s accusations that Ukraine had restricted the rights of Russian-speakers, saying it was Vladimir Putin‘s invasion that wiped Russian-speaking cities “off the face of the earth.”
