Zelenskyy said this in an interview with Reuters.
"I am against the supply of ammonia froom the Russian Federation through our territory. I would do it only in exchange for our prisoners," he said.
The President stated that hundreds of Russian soldiers were captured during Ukraine's counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region. At the same time, he said that more Ukrainian military personnel will be detained in Russia than Russian ones in Ukraine.
Zelenskyy added that he expressed his condition to the UN leadership, which wants to restore the supply of Russian ammonia to Ukraine in order to reduce the global shortage of fertilizers.
