Russia’s leader, Vladimir Putin has “finally agreed” he will need to meet with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky in person to resolve the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The Russian tyrant will allegedly meet Zelensky ‘at some point’, the Express reported, after the Ukrainian leader accused Russia of ‘war crimes’ amid the bombing of an art school and theatre in Mariupol where civilians were sheltering.

The two leaders have let their diplomatic teams conduct peace talks on neutral ground since after the start of the conflict on February 24.




BBC correspondent Lysa Doucet said the Russian President is now believed to have caved to his top diplomats and accepted he will have to attend negotiations himself “at some point.”

Putin has come to terms with fact he will have to lead the negotiations at some time in the future, the BBC’s Lyse Doucet said.

‘The diplomats are talking, the negotiators are talking. We understand President Putin has finally agreed that he will meet, at some point, President Zelensky who has been asking for a meeting since January,’ she said.

‘He hasn’t said it in public, he says quite the opposite in public.’

Zelensky yesterday declared that Russia will ‘go down in history of responsibility for war crimes’, and admonished the invaders’ bombardment and siege of southern port city Mariupol, which has for weeks been pounded by airstrikes and missiles.

Nice decision

Man to man discussion
