Kirv: Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba on Monday said Ukraine wanted direct talks between President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russia’s Vladimir Putin because Kyiv knows Putin is the person calling the shots in Moscow.
We have long wanted a direct conversation between the president of Ukraine and Vladimir Putin, because we all understand that it is he who makes the final decisions, especially now, he said in a live television broadcast.
Our president is not scared of anything, including a direct meeting with Putin, Kuleba added. If Putin is also not scared, let him come to the meeting, let them sit down and talk.
Terming Terming Russian President Vladimir Putin as a beast who will never be satisfied, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday (local time) warned Western countries that the ongoing war will not stop at Ukraine and will affect the rest of the world as well.
‘Everyone thinks that we are far away from America or Canada. No, we are in this zone of freedom. And when the limits of rights and freedoms are being violated and stepped on, then you have to protect us. Because we will come first. You will come second. Because the more this beast will eat, he wants more, more, and more, CNN quoted Zelenskyy as saying during an interview on ABC World News Tonight with David Muir.
Reiterating his appeal to secure the airspace of Ukraine, Zelenskyy said, We cannot allow Russia to be active there only, because they’re bombing us, they are shelling us, they are sending missiles, helicopters, jet fighters — a lot of things. We don’t control our sky.
Zelenskyy further said that he believes US President Joe Biden can do more to stop the war. I am sure he can and I would like to believe that. He is capable of doing that, reported the media outlet quoting him.
