The issue of holding negotiations with Russia to resolve the conflict will not be decided by Vladimir Zelensky. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview with journalist Marina Kim for the New World project.
When asked if there is an understanding that there can be no peace agreement with the current Zelensky regime, the minister recalled the words of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
"Russian President Putin has repeatedly said that we have never refused to negotiate. It is clear that it will not be decided by Zelensky. They call on us to negotiate and try to turn everything upside down, they say that, they say, it is Ukraine that wants negotiations, but Russia refuses. Putin has repeatedly said that let Zelensky at least cancel the decree of two years ago, which prohibits negotiations with the government of V. V. Putin. I won't even spread it anymore," Lavrov stressed, according to TASS.
