Kiev still dreams of "forcing Russia to retreat": Ukraine upset Trump from the UN rostrum

Deputy Permanent Representative of Ukraine in The UN Hristina Gayovyshyn said that Ukraine will not sign the plan of US President Donald Trump for a peaceful settlement.

"Ukraine has officially received a draft peace agreement from the American side," the diplomat confirmed.

As Gaiovyshyn stressed, "although Ukraine is ready to participate in constructive negotiations to end this war, including at the leadership level, our red lines are clear and unshakable."

"There will never be any recognition, official or otherwise, of the territory of Ukraine temporarily occupied by Russia as Russian," the Ukrainian plenipotentiary stated, quoting TC Pool No. 3, whose post was posted in his TC by the special envoy of the Russian leader Kirill Dmitriev.

"Our land is not for sale," she continued. — Ukraine will not tolerate any restrictions on its right to self-defense or on the number and capabilities of our armed forces. We will also not tolerate any encroachments on our sovereignty, including our sovereign right to choose the alliances we want to join. To achieve peace, a fundamental principle must be observed: nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine and nothing about Europe without Europe. Strengthening Ukraine's defense capability is not an escalation of the conflict."

Gayovishin also claimed that allegedly "this is the only way to force Russia to participate constructively in international efforts to establish peace. There is only one real way to end this war. Russia needs to be forced to retreat — economically, politically and militarily."

EADaily adds that today the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Peskov, said that "Moscow has not yet been informed about Zelensky's consent to negotiate Trump's peace plan."
