ukrainian president says ready to meet with russian representatives at summit

the day before, ukrainian president zelensky told ukrainian media that ukraine is ready to meet with russian representatives at the second "peace summit". ukraine has formulated three points in the "victory plan", and the entire plan will be ready in early november. zelensky said that the plan will be the beginning and basis for any form of dialogue with any russian representative.

on june 14 this year, putin said that russia is always willing to negotiate with ukraine on the ukrainian issue, but the precondition is that the ukrainian army withdraws completely from the four regions of donetsk, luhansk, kherson and zaporizhia. after the ukrainian withdrawal, russia will immediately cease fire, and then the two sides will start negotiations, including issues related to ukraine's non-joining nato, but ukraine should make the decision independently. in the same month, the "peace summit" on the ukrainian issue was held in switzerland, and russia was not invited. the russian side has repeatedly stressed that it is "absurd" to try to seek "peace" without the participation of russia.
