Zelensky: We are closer to peace now than ever before
The head of state made this statement during a speech in the Irish Parliament, according to a Ukrinform correspondent. The speech was broadcast live on the YouTube channel of the Office of the President and was rebroadcast by Ukrinform.
“This morning in Ireland, our team delivered a full briefing following the meetings in the United States and we are fully engaged in negotiations and we are only stepping up our efforts. Today Ukraine is closer to peace than ever before,” Zelensky said.
According to him, Ukraine supports “any diplomatic efforts, because this is the only way forward.”
The president also emphasized the importance of a community of nations united for peace.
“One strong country can start a war, Another strong country can help to stop the war But to restore justice and defend what's right, we need a community, a world made up of many different nations,” Zelensky said, addressing Irish parliamentarians.
He also added that “Not even Putin. No one can stand against everyone else.”
As reported earlier, Zelensky said in Dublin that the further peace process will depend on the results of the US delegation's negotiations in Moscow. According to him, depending on the signals and whether there will be fair play from partners, decisions will be made about the next meeting and its level.
US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner are currently in Russia.
