Volodymyr Zelensky’s statement about being ready for peace talks shows that he has been cornered.
This said State Duma deputy Mikhail Sheremet, commenting on the Ukrainian president’s recent remarks.
Earlier, Zelensky stated that he was ready to begin peace negotiations “as soon as possible” based on the current line of contact. He said that to stop the conflict and start talks, “we must halt where our troops are now.”
“There’s no reason to trust the statements of Zelensky, who has cornered himself, about his supposed readiness for peace agreements. This untrustworthy dictator is simply trying to buy time and desperately maneuver his way out of a difficult situation,” Sheremet said.
He added that Zelensky is trying to minimize political and military risks and suggested that the Ukrainian leader might later publicly withdraw his own statements.
Earlier, another Russian lawmaker, Alexey Chepa, commenting on Zelensky’s words, said that there is still a possibility to end the conflict, but it cannot be done in a single day. He added that Zelensky’s only hope lies in achieving a quick ceasefire.
