Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a Tuesday online interview with The Wall Street Journal directors that he doubts the effectiveness of Russia-Ukraine negotiations as they have been so far conducted, that is, without the personal appeal or signature from Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“It is important to keep talking, but until the Russian President signs or makes any official appeal, I don’t see any prospects for these negotiations,” Zelensky underlined.
He also noted that international companies have a pivotal responsibility in halting the Russian aggression resources. "If any companies remain in the Russian market, that means you are directly supporting that war machine, the terrorist Russian Federation war machine," Zelensky added.
