Ukraine, Russia and the US will continue peace talks tomorrow, November 11. One of the topics to be discussed will be the possibility of a meeting at the leaders' level, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said at a briefing.
According to him, tomorrow's agenda will include steps toward de-escalation, specifically regarding strikes on energy infrastructure and the situation in the Black Sea.
The parties will also return to the issue of a possible large-scale prisoner-of-war exchange. The third topic of discussion, Zelenskyy said, will be a trilateral meeting at the leaders' level, if possible.
The president also noted that Kyiv does not believe, but hopes, that the current talks could produce more significant results than those achieved last winter.
"We always support negotiations because we want to work. We need more pressure, there is not enough pressure on Russia. I know the position of Americans, but I think we need more pressure and less business with these guys. It will be more useful," he said.
Zelenskyy also said that even if the only outcome is a prisoner exchange, that would still be a success.
