Authored by pravda.com.ua

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has made it clear that he will discuss the "territorial issue" with Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin.

Source: Zelenskyy at a briefing in Washington.

Details: Zelenskyy said that he had "slightly debated" the percentage of occupied territory shown on the map presented by the Americans during the White House meeting.

Meanwhile, he repeated that he had had no disagreements with Trump, describing their exchange as "a good, warm and substantive conversation".

The president said he had explained when and how certain parts of Ukraine’s territory were occupied, including parts of the east and Crimea in 2014.

"We will leave the issue of territories between me and Putin," he said, without going into further details.

Kyiv also rejects the proposal Putin made to Trump in Alaska to freeze the rest of the front line if Ukraine withdraws troops from the partly occupied eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. »
