Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin – the Russian mercenary leader whose plane crashed weeks after he led a mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership – shows what happens when people make deals with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
As Ukraine’s counteroffensive moves into a fourth month, with only modest gains to show so far, Zelensky told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria he rejected suggestions it was time to negotiate peace with the Kremlin.
“When you want to have a compromise or a dialogue with somebody, you cannot do it with a liar,” Volodymyr Zelensky said.
If there isn’t going to be any peace discussions from Ukraine … how does this ever end?
With Russia leaving. They started this war. Fuck off with your “If there isn’t going to be any peace discussions from Ukraine … how does this ever end?”
Ukraine, and only Ukraine can be the one to talk about any negotiations. I’ll back their decisions whether it’s to fight to the bitter end, or stop and give up. Their people control their destiny. Russia on the other hand is the one that could simply bring an end to this by leaving. They could have brought peace in fact by simply never killing others. You’re victim blaming. Fuck off.
Russia doesn’t need to ask permission to leave, they just leave.
Seems like a lot fewer Russians and Ukrainians will die if the Russians left ukraine.
It takes two to make peace. And how can there’s be peace after the mass murder, torture and kidnapping of children, destruction and death wrought upon Ukraine.
If Canada did that to the USA, how keen for peace would you be exactly?
There can only be peace if there is justice.

The president is an ethnic Russian you lying piece of garbage.
Russia has killed more ethnic Russians than Ukraine (or anyone else) ever has. Including 200k of it’s own soldiers. There is nobody in the world more russophobic than Russia.
As for “Banderite Nazis” I wonder how much they got in the elections? You know, those things that Russia doesn’t have, unless “United Russia” wins. Every single action taken by Russia over the past decade is an exact reflection of Naziism.
How can you be so completely and utterly brainwashed as to not see what’s right in front of your dumb face.
I mean the Nazis got into power because Victoria Nuland acted as kingmaker for them… this is all available on the internet from reputable sources. It just hasn’t hit your brainwashed mass media sources because you watch literal propaganda and are such a useful idiot that rather than think critically you regurgitste it on link sharing forums. Sad.
Yeah Nazis elected a Jewish man president. You truly do believe such bullshit.
In the meantime the real Nazis were in an alliance with Russia until the Russians were betrayed.
The USA was fine to let the Nazis take over Europe until Japan invaded Pearl Harbour. What’s your point?
The US played the same role towards the UK as it is playing now towards Ukraine - providing aid - until Pearl Harbor.
Good question, every war ends in some kind of negotiation, even for surrender. I think when Russia loses, Putin is unlikely to keep power, and some sort of agreement will happen without him.
Russia can, very straightforwardly, retreat to Russia. Boom, peace!
