Russia-Ukraine negotiations

In 2022, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy made a decision, approved by the National Security and Defense Council, to prohibit any talks with Putin.

Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, Oleksiy Danilov, emphasized that the doors for dialogue with Russia are currently closed.

At the same time, Zelenskyy suggested that the Russian dictator may seek negotiations once the Armed Forces of Ukraine reach Crimea.
