Dmytro Lytvyn, Advisor to the President of Ukraine on Communications, stated in a comment to UNIAN that the idea voiced by the Kremlin to hold a meeting of the leaders of Ukraine and the Russian Federation in Moscow is unrealistic and aims only to prolong the war.
"Typical Putin plotting - in order not to do something realistic that depends on him, for example, stopping the killings, he suggests something unrealistic, for example, coming to him in Moscow," the advisor to the head of state noted.
As Lytvyn emphasized, now Putin is "simply dragging out the war and proving once again that pressure is needed to force him to real diplomacy and peace."
Zelenskyy's advisor noted that currently at least 7 states are ready to provide a venue for the leaders' meeting.
"The only problem is that Putin himself doesn't want it. For now," — Litvin emphasized.
In addition, Putin's statement about his readiness to meet with Zelensky in Moscow was commented on in network XMinister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Sybiga.
He confirmed that at least seven countries are currently ready to provide a platform for a meeting between Zelensky and Putin to end the war. In particular, these are Austria, the Vatican, Switzerland, Turkey, and three Gulf countries.
"These are serious proposals - and President Zelensky is ready for such a meeting at any time. However, Putin continues to fool everyone by putting forward proposals that are unacceptable in advance," Sibig stressed.
The Foreign Minister is convinced that ultimately only increased pressure can force Russia to take the peace process seriously.
Recall that today, during a visit to China, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin said that he was ready to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky only if he came to Moscow.
