Time to organize format for leaders to talk about security guarantees - Zelenskyy
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had a telephone conversation with Finnish President Alexander Stubb, with whom he coordinated positions for more significant results in ending Russia's war against Ukrainians.
"Our teams are actively preparing the architecture of strong and multilateral security guarantees for Ukraine, everyone is involved: Europeans, Americans, our other partners in the coalition of the willing. Military commanders, defense ministers, security advisors - at different levels we are preparing the components of future security. We are accelerating the definition of details. It is time to organize a format for the leaders' conversation to determine key accents and deadlines," Zelenskyy said on Telegram on Wednesday.
The president noted that the Russians are now giving negative signals regarding the meetings and further developments, and are continuing strikes on Ukrainian settlements.
"The Russians will only consider strong pressure in response to all this. Pressure is needed. We are counting on it. Steps are needed precisely from Russia - steps towards real diplomacy," Zelenskyy said.
He thanked Stubb for his constructive comments and advice, and noted that he would be glad welcome him in Kyiv.
