President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke about his conversation with his American counterpart, Donald Trump.
“I had a good conversation with President Trump. We congratulated our nations on Victory Day in Europe – the victory over Nazism. We welcomed the ratification by the Verkhovna Rada of the Economic Partnership Agreement – a truly historic document that opens up many new opportunities for cooperation,” Zelenskyy wrote.
The interlocutors discussed the need for further efforts towards peace. The President of Ukraine briefed his counterpart on the situation on the battlefield and said that Ukraine was ready for a 30-day ceasefire starting today – and was waiting for Russia’s consent to this proposal.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that Ukraine is ready for negotiations in any format, but Russia must demonstrate its seriousness about ending the war – starting with a full and unconditional ceasefire.
In turn, Donald Trump confirmed that he wants to end this war, is ready to assist, and supports the need for a ceasefire.
The presidents also agreed on further contacts.
