Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that the first step towards negotiations on a peaceful settlement of the war must be a full and unconditional ceasefire, which Russia is currently not prepared to accept.
Source Zelenskyy during a joint press conference with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on 24 April Quote This is step number one.
And when we talk about compromises the ones you are asking about.
I believe we were attacked, our territory was occupied, tens of thousands of people were killed and many children and adults were buried alive.
And the fact that Ukraine is ready to sit at the negotiating table after a full ceasefire with the terrorists who orchestrated all this on our land is a major compromise.
Details Zelenkskyy stressed that Ukraine is more interested than anyone in ending the war.
That is why all peace initiatives are important and can be considered.
However, they must all begin with a complete and unconditional ceasefire.
Everyone agrees to this, except for the Russian Federation, Zelenskyy added.
The second red line, according to Zelenskyy, is to bring back abducted Ukrainian children.
In addition to that an allforall prisoner exchange.
Zelenskyy also expressed hope that the United States might exert greater pressure on Russia to finally achieve a complete ceasefire.
