Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy appears intent on being a wrecking ball against U.S.-Russian peace efforts. “Ukraine will not participate,” Zelenskyy told Ukrainian reporters during an online conference from Abu Dhabi, reported Ukrinform. “Ukraine knew nothing about it. And Ukraine regards any talks about Ukraine without Ukraine as such that have no result. We cannot recognize any things or agreements about us without us. And we will not recognize such agreements.”
Following the conclusion of the U.S.-Russia meeting in Riyadh on Feb. 18, Zelenskyy announced that he would be postponing his planned Wednesday trip to Saudi Arabia to March 10, not wanting to “appear to give anything that happened in Riyadh any legitimacy,” one source reported, according to South China Morning Post.
