Kalin reminded that “the parties held meetings at the technical level in Belarus, the first meeting at the ministerial level took place in the Antalya Diplomatic Forum. Today the main goal is to organize a meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy”.
According to the spokesman for the Turkish Council Presidency, there is a possibility of reaching a peace agreement: “Now the only question is when and how it will come about.” Zelenskyy, he concluded, “is ready for a meeting, but Putin believes that the positions are not close enough yet.”
The war between Ukraine and Russia “could end very quickly if” US President Joe Biden calls Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, says Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko instead, who was interviewed by Japanese television Tbs, according to Russian agency Tass . For Lukashenko, Zelenskyy actually receives “instructions from US President Joe Biden and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson”.
And Johnson himself is skeptical about the possibility of a constructive dialogue with Moscow. The invasion of Ukraine was “a barbaric attack on innocent civilians the likes of which has not been seen since the 1940s,” said the British prime minister, warning that a Russian success in Ukraine would “end all hope for freedom in Moldova and Russia.” Georgia” would mean. “There are people in the world, even in Western governments, who think it’s better to agree with tyrants. I think they are profoundly wrong. Normalizing relations with Putin after what happened, as we did in 2014, would mean repeating the same mistake,” he noted.
