(MENAFN- UkrinForm) According to Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky said this in his evening address on Telegram.

“Today, the United States has turned to diplomacy in the situation around Iran, and the world supports this. A ceasefire always creates more space for diplomacy and should precede a genuine end to the war,” he said.

The President emphasized that Ukraine has followed a similar approach from the very beginning in Russia's war against Ukraine.

“Of course, this is not easy to implement, and further efforts are still needed in the Middle East to stabilize the ceasefire so that it holds. But ultimately, the goal for everyone must be the same – greater security,” the head of state stressed.
