Ukrainian official: No compromises on ceding Ukrainian territory, Zelenskyy/Putin talks will be difficult
|Deputy chief of staff and adviser to Ukrainian president Ihor Zhovkva said on Tuesday that there will be no compromise from Ukraine on ceding territory to Russia, reported Bloomberg. Zhovkva continued that any meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will be "difficult", before noting that talks must continue for peace.
His remarks come after Russian troops pulled back from regions to the north of Ukraine and seemingly left evidence of widespread war crimes against Ukrainian civilians in their wake. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is currently speaking at the UN security council and accused Russia of committing "the most terrible war crimes" since World War two.
