As far as the Russians are concerned, there is no place for Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the acting president of Ukraine, in any negotiations involving Ukraine’s future. “For the final phase of negotiations, when agreements have been reached that must be formalized, Vladimir Zelenskyy as the leader of Ukraine, as he calls himself, is unacceptable. He cannot sign anything because his credentials have not been confirmed, and his term in office has expired,” Rodion Miroshnik, the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Ambassador-at-Large on the Kiev Regime’s War Crimes, told TASS in an interview today.
Miroshnik noted that, according to sociologists in Ukraine, people there have a huge “desire to end the conflict and hostilities. But Zelenskyy doesn’t have this anywhere in his rhetoric,” he stated. “Therefore, what is the point of inviting a person to negotiations who will obviously seek to disrupt them so that no agreements are reached? He openly declares: ‘We will not fulfill any agreements.’ He demonstrates that he is not ready to fulfill any political agreements without coercion, that he has no desire to seek a political way out of this situation.
