"Through dialogue, not ultimatums": Zelensky is ready to negotiate with Putin without any mediators

He said this in an interview with Italian channel Rai 1.

"As for the negotiations with Russia, the issue is becoming more complicated day by day. I think so because every day we liberate small towns and see traces of abuse, torture, executions, which Russian military left," said Zelensky.

Ukrainian society has been ready for dialogue with Russia in 2014.

"Now society isn't up for dialogue. As a president I'm willing to talk with Putin, but with him personally, without mediators through dialogue, not ultimatums," said Zelensky.
