Ukraine cannot be excluded from any negotiating platform. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during his meeting with the media.
"Russia's war is against Ukraine, against Europe, against the whole world, but above all, the war is waged on our land. It is impossible to exclude Ukraine from any negotiating platform. Either this negotiating platform will have no real results, or it will have only political results. And such results will have nothing to do with security or the end of the war," the Head of State emphasized.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that he supports the desire of U.S. President Donald Trump to succeed in establishing a just peace. But this can only be achieved together with Ukraine, because Russia does not want to end the war. The Head of State also added that Europe should also be at the negotiating table.
"I would really like the European voice to be there as well. It is important for us because we will be members of the European Union. But I can't say clearly today what the structure of the negotiation process will be. Because we do not have a joint plan yet," the President noted.
According to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, this plan should be based on the documents already developed by Ukraine: The Peace Formula and the Victory Plan.
