This was stated by the adviser to the Office of the President of Ukraine, Mykhailo Podoliak, on May 13 during a broadcast of The Breakfast Show, reports the BBC.
When asked whether a meeting between Zelensky and other russian representatives, such as putin’s aide Vladimir Medinsky, was possible, Podoliak replied: “No, of course not”.
“Only putin can make the decision to continue or suspend the war”, - said Podoliak.
In his opinion, any meetings in another format are pointless and will only lead to a waste of time.
