Zelenskyy Says Putin "Personally" Wants War to Continue
(MENAFN) Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy charged Monday that Russian President Vladimir Putin is "personally" driving the continuation of the war between the two nations, now grinding into its fifth year.
Speaking in an evening address, Zelenskyy said an "absolute majority" of Putin's "own society" would welcome an end to the fighting along the current line of contact.
"For now, unfortunately, all the intel – both ours and our partners' – and all the signals from Russia indicate that the Russian leader personally wants more war," he said.
Zelenskyy revealed he had spoken by phone with US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, son-in-law of US President Donald Trump, to discuss groundwork for an upcoming meeting and continued dialogue with the Russian side, along with the possibility of the two men visiting Ukraine.
"We discussed what could be done to encourage Russia to move toward ending the war," he said. "The mood needs to be appropriate in Moscow, with Putin. A mood to end the war, not to wage it."
"We will see what the representatives of the American president manage to achieve. September may change a lot," he added.
