Zelensky: I'm ready to meet Putin.

Speaking to Ray 1, Zelensky said he would enter into negotiations with Putin “on the condition of dialogue rather than the ultimatum”.

“As president of the country, I'm willing to talk to Putin, but only to him. No mediators, no ultimatums.

Ukraine and Russia have not held eye - to - eye meetings since March 29th, when they met at the Belarus border.

Zelensky said the first step towards negotiations would be to withdraw Russian troops from Ukraine. /Periscopi/
