By refusing a meeting, Vladimir Putin is choosing another war with Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said today, quoted by Agence France-Presse, BTA reports.
Zelensky is referring to the Ukrainian proposal for a meeting between the two heads of state.
"Unfortunately, the Russian side is choosing another war (. . .) It simply does not want to end the war," Zelensky said.
Putin said earlier today that a meeting with Zelensky would not make sense before a peace agreement is finalized.
