Zelensky rejects Putin’s idea of meeting in Moscow: “He can come to Kyiv”

The President said this in an interview with ABC News, Ukrinform reports.

“He can come to Kyiv. I can't go to Moscow when my country's under missiles, under attack, each day. I can't go to the capital of this terrorist,” Zelensky said.

According to him, Putin’s proposal was actually aimed at postponing their meeting.

Zelensky stated that he was ready for a meeting in any format.

In his opinion, Putin is “playing games with the United States”.

“If a person doesn't want to meet during the war, of course, he can propose something which can’t be acceptable by me or by others,” the President noted.

As reported, earlier Putin declared he was ready to meet Zelensky in Moscow.

Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said that currently, seven countries are ready to host a meeting between Zelensky and Putin, but definitely not in Moscow. Among them are Austria, the Holy See, Switzerland, Turkey, and three Gulf countries.
