No concrete peace plan exists at this time – Zelensky

The head of state said this at a meeting with journalists, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"What is important in this question is whether I, as the President of Ukraine, have seen this plan. No. I think that's the answer to all questions. There are various European ideas and proposals regarding a peace settlement," Zelensky said.

He expressed surprise at claims that Russia was supposedly expected to take part in talks under such a plan.

"It's strange to hear that Russia would be at the negotiating table, since at present no European leader or the U.S. president can force Russia to sit down at the negotiating table," he said.

Zelensky stressed that any further developments toward a peace settlement must involve the United States, as moving to a diplomatic stage is impossible without its political and military support.

"Our position is this: there are now consultations among advisers, several different discussions are ongoing, but there is no concrete, finalized plan on the table yet," he said.
