President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky discussed the negotiations between the Ukrainian and Russian teams in Istanbul and increasing pressure on Russia with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson.

Zelensky reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

“I had a substantive conversation with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson — about the negotiations in Istanbul, increasing pressure on Russia, and our further joint actions. We also focused on cooperation within the Coalition of the Willing, security guarantees, and defense partnership,” the Head of State said.

Zelensky thanked Sweden and the Nordic and Baltic countries for their joint statement supporting a full and unconditional 30-day ceasefire and direct high-level negotiations between Ukraine and Russia.

“This is crucial to give true diplomacy a chance,” Zelensky noted.
