The Ukrainian president hopes that peace talks will reap practical results

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed his readiness for negotiations with Russia. He requested that the Israeli prime minister convene peace talks in Jerusalem.

“A group of Ukrainians and Russian representatives are discussing certain issues. They began talking about something, and not just throwing out ultimatums,” Zelensky said on Saturday, during a press conference with foreign media.

Kiev is of the view that any high-profile talks with Russia should be held on neutral territory, Zelensky said, naming Israel as a potential host for such negotiations.

“We spoke with [Israeli Prime Minister Naftali] Bennett, and I said that today it is not right [to hold] meetings in Russia, in Belarus. I’m not talking about technical meetings – I’m talking about leaders’ meetings. Do I think that Israel can be such a land, and Jerusalem? Yes, I think so. And I told him that,” Zelensky stated.

However, the president said, if the outcome was to be successful, his country would need certain “security guarantees” that the ongoing conflict was settled not only from the perspective of Russia, but also from that of the West. Israel could act as a guarantor in that respect, he suggested.

So far, Russian and Ukrainian delegations have met three times in Belarus to discuss the ongoing conflict. Apart from reaching some understanding on establishing humanitarian corridors to evacuate civilians from the combat zones, the two sides have failed to achieve any tangible results.

A more high-profile meeting took place in the Turkish resort city of Antalya on Thursday, when Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov held talks with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba. These discussions also proved inconclusive, with Kuleba describing them as “difficult”, and Lavrov claiming the Ukrainian officials “always want to substitute the real work of implementing agreements with inventing new formats.”

Zelensky must pay for his stupidity both in Ukraine and for attempting to cause third world war.

For the 100th time.
He should keep delaying the needful because he's blinded by the promises of the West.

Re: Zelensky Says He Is Ready To Negotiate With Russia by samista: 12:52pm On Mar 13, 2022
This zelensky is really a fool. Why not negotiate before the war started? Why wait until thousands of your citizens have perished and millions more in exile? And your cities are in ruins? It's too late sef, I don't think Putin will even be willing to negotiate anything with him now except total surrender.
Re: Zelensky Says He Is Ready To Negotiate With Russia by MyVILLAGEpeople(m): 1:00pm On Mar 13, 2022
Putin should have been more brutal and ruthless in dealing with this clown. He has brought so much destruction upon Ukraine, he’s now looking for a soft landing.

Russia vs Ukraine should be on Bet9ja with 1:67 odds respectively.

Regardless of the social media propaganda, I'll place my bet on Russia.

Putin must not back out until Zelensky is captured and given the Gadaffi treatment

Is that reason all Russia neighbours are running away from her? Neighbouring nations know Russia as an unfriendly nation. If all your neighbours don't like you, you are the problem.

No you are wrong!
Ukraine never problem with Russia until Zinchenko did a grave miscalculation.that miscalculation is what has culminated to what we have now.
Ukraine economy ran into very bad waters and Zinchenko who is now battling with govt control wrote to the west for bailout funds(guess the conditions that was given to him...since Ukraine was neither in the E.U nor a NATO member).Zinchenko did not pursue the matter further but he lost the election and in 2010 yanokovych was duly elected as Ukraine president.Yanukovych went to Russia and Russia instantly promised him with funds without conditions to save Ukraine and yanokovych ditched the west.
Guess the next thing that happened in 2014 the west sponsored a coup to remove yanokovych as President.Yanukovych ran to Moscow on exile.
Russia complained that the west had interfered in Ukraine and was going against its own dictates and as a result.Ukraine never experienced peace as long as the west was influencing Ukraine
The rest is history that has culminated into today's war


This war war 8 to 12years in the making.people in authority kicking it down the road until it got to zelensky.zelensky just exploded it and boom

Root of problem is Russification of Ukrainians which stated in 18th century and still on going. Ukraine wants to have their national identity but Russia sees Ukraine as their own. As a puppet state.
I don't see anything wrong if ukraine becomes a booming democratic state due to western influence.
Problem with putin is that he hates democratic leaders. Most of his allies are dictators or sit- tight leaders.
