Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday that he’s “ready for negotiations” with Russian President Vladimir Putin, but that if they break down, it will lead to World War III.
“I’m ready for negotiations with him. I was ready for the last two years. And I think that without negotiations we cannot end this war,” Zelensky told CNN‘s Fareed Zakaria.
“I think that we have to use any format, any chance in order to have a possibility of negotiating, possibility of talking to Putin. But if these attempts fail, that would mean that this is a third World War.”
Zelensky’s comments come as Turkey claims Moscow and Kiev are close to an agreement on key points – despite the Kremlin turning to “more destructive artillery” after revealing it used hypersonic “Kinzhal” missiles at least twice on Ukrainian targets.
In a Saturday video message, Zelensky called for talks “without delay,” warning that Russia would suffer “huge” losses if they don’t come to the table.
“We have always insisted on negotiations. We have always offered dialogue, offered solutions for peace,” he said. “And I want everyone to hear me now, especially in Moscow. It’s time to meet. Time to talk. It is time to restore territorial integrity and justice for Ukraine.”
Ukraine’s priorities are: “The end of the war, security guarantees, sovereignty, restoration of territorial integrity, real guarantees for our country, real protection for our country.”
Russia’s priorities – laid out in a call with Turkey last week – consist of two categories of demands; Ukraine must remain neutral and not apply to join Nato, a point Zelensky has already conceded. Ukraine would also need to undergo a disarmament process to ensure it isn’t a threat to Russia, as well as ‘de-Nazify’ its armed forces.
The second category of Russian demands is where more difficulty will lie, according to top Turkish government adviser Ibrahim Kalin, and will require face-to-face negotiations between Putin and Zelensky.
Mr Kalin was much less specific about these issues, saying simply that they involved the status of Donbas, in eastern Ukraine, parts of which have already broken away from Ukraine and stressed their Russianness, and the status of Crimea.
Although Mr Kalin didn’t go into detail, the assumption is that Russia will demand that the Ukrainian government should give up territory in eastern Ukraine. That will be deeply contentious. -BBC
On Sunday, Zelensky told CNN that if Ukraine “were a NATO member, a war wouldn’t have started.”
“I’d like to receive security guarantees for my country, for my people. If NATO members are ready to see us in the alliance, then do it immediately. Because people are dying on a daily basis,” he continued, adding that he’s been grateful for NATO’s aid since the invasion began.

I defy anyone to name the LEAST despicable person in that montage.
The Antichrist is there with all his minions, so there is no “least.”
Nothing leads to WW3 if nobody else is prepared to do anything. Where does this drag queen Jewnazi get off saying such a thing?
He’s an inserted mouthpiece of his handlers, much like Fidel Trudy is.
To fail is not an option, so they double down on fear propaganda and or abuse of power.
To fail is to lose the gravy train they’ve been on, acting as legitimate front men.
Admin’s post of the Michael Walker tweet speaks volumes, and Putin is fighting that.
I don’t recognize the bitch in top row, next to the alcoholic 3rd in line. Do tell.
It’s Marina Abramovic, the spirit cooking satanist.

There cain’t be no “world war” if Uncle Sugar don’t participate.
Don’t participate in this latest “Great Reset” satanic scam.
Zelenskyy may have left Ukraine.
Gonzalo only adds to the confusion, as Type F (used in Germany, Russia, and Ukraine) is two prongs sticking out from the plug just as Type E (used in France and Poland),
but both are actually three-connector plugs/sockets (i.e. earthed), with the earth connector being mechnically different between the two.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets#CEE_7_standard
But yes, the very fuzzy picture looks a little more like French/Polish Type E socket, but it’s not clear enough to make a call.
May have? It is has been confirmed he is holed up in Poland like a rat.
Sounds like the kind of “democracy” the democrat party in the US would certainly support.
Why should the rest of the world fight for a democrat, and rino money laundering country.
“In a Saturday video message, Zelensky called for talks “without delay,” warning that Russia would suffer “huge” losses if they don’t come to the table”
The little Zionist puppet is still pushing his lies. That is the type of stuff that will get many Ukrainians killed as well as the morons who are going there to fight. Those lying assholes have been claiming that not only has Russia been taking huge losses but that Ukraine could actually win the war. It’s pathetic.
NWO Shills.

The thing that will ensure WW3 is if Zewlwnsky remains in charge of that pitiful country.
