Key statements by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a press briefing
▫️ A closed-door emergency meeting will take place this week with core countries ready to consider deploying a presence on Ukrainian territory. France, the United Kingdom, and Ukraine will definitely take part in this meeting.
▫️ Ukraine will receive expanded access to satellite intelligence data from European partners. Additionally, during the meeting in Paris on support for Ukraine, agreements were reached with several leaders on access to their ammunition stockpiles.
▫️ The U.S. side will hold internal consultations and then engage with Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and several European countries to discuss their readiness to monitor the ceasefire. There is a clear understanding that without monitoring, russia will not abide by any truce.
▫️ Ukraine is conducting its own monitoring and is clearly informing the U.S. side where russia has violated its commitments. The Minister of Defense of Ukraine will deliver all evidence of these violations to the U.S., which serves as the main point of contact.
▫️ Ukraine could agree to discuss ending the war not with putin personally, but with someone who represents russia and has a clear vision for ending the conflict.
▫️ Ukrainian forces are physically present in the kursk region. This is a deterrence measure to prevent russian forces from launching an incursion into Sumy Oblast.
