Ukraine signals readiness for talks as Russia remains silent – Zelensky

President Volodymyr Zelensky said this during his evening video address.

“Our negotiating group is working continuously – the guys are in contact with the American side. Ukraine is ready for meetings, but at this point, unfortunately, we still do not have firm answers from Russia regarding what has been proposed for next week. So far, we hear nothing but more manipulation around ‘Oreshnik’. This is certainly not about peace,” Zelensky emphasized.

As previously reported, on January 11, President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had accepted a U.S. proposal to hold another round of talks on ending the war with Russia next week. According to Zelensky, the next round of peace negotiations is planned for Tuesday or Wednesday, although it remains unclear whether Russia will agree to take part in the talks in the United States.
