Stating that his country is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible, Zelenskyy said, "Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible. I am ready to work for peace under Trump's strong leadership. Ukraine is ready to sign a mining and security agreement at any time and in any appropriate format.
The meeting we held at the White House in Washington on Friday did not go as it should have. It is sad that it happened this way. It is time to fix things," he said.
A White House official said: "Trump will announce his plans to end the war in Ukraine in his speech to Congress."
Zelenskyy also added, "I am sad about what happened at the White House. We remember the turning point when President Trump provided Javelins to Ukraine. We are grateful for this. Ukraine is ready to sit at the negotiating table as soon as possible to bring lasting peace even closer. As for the mining and security agreement, Ukraine is ready to sign it at any moment and in any appropriate format.
The first steps to end the war could be the release of prisoners and a ceasefire in the skies. This means a ban on long-range missiles and UAVs," he stated.
