Kathmandu. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on the US to put more pressure on Russia to end the war. However, it is not yet clear whether Moscow will participate in the US-mediated peace talks next week.
President Zelensky has confirmed that Ukraine is ready to participate in the meeting and has claimed that no success was achieved after two rounds of tripartite talks last month.
It has been said that not only Ukraine is responsible for this, but also America, so pressure should be put on Russia to make the next negotiations successful. Earlier, President Zelensky said that the US wants to end the four-year-long war between Russia and Ukraine by June. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has mentioned that the negotiations for the solution of the Ukrainian crisis are still ongoing, but there are still many coordinations to be done.
