Won’t accept any peace agreement made without Kyiv: Zelenskyy – The Tribune

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Thursday he would not accept any agreements about Ukraine that do not include his country in talks.

In his first comments to journalists since US President Donald Trump held individual calls first with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and then Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian leader said the main thing was to “not allow everything to go according to Putin’s plan.”

“We cannot accept it, as an independent country, any agreements without us. I articulate this very clearly — any bilateral negotiations about Ukraine, not on other topics, but any bilateral talks about Ukraine without us — we will not accept,” he said. — AP
