Volodymyr Zelenskyy is ready to meet with Vladimir Putin in person, as long as it doesn't take place in Kyiv or Moscow. The Ukrainian president stated this in an interview with the Italian television network RAI. "I'm ready to meet with Putin. Of course, not in Moscow or Kyiv. But if he's ready to meet with me, there are plenty of places. We can find such a place in the Middle East, in Europe, in the US—anywhere," he said. Zelenskyy reiterated that he sees no room for discussing territorial concessions. He stated that "the transfer of Donbas is out of the question," as such a move would create strategic risks for Ukraine. He also emphasized the need for clear security guarantees from the West, including a "European and American presence." Commenting on the prospects for negotiations, the Kremlin has repeatedly stated that a meeting between the heads of state must be preceded by Kiev fulfilling a number of conditions.
