What is President Zelenskyy's stance on peace talks regarding Ukraine that exclude Ukrainian participation?
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has firmly rejected any outcome from peace talks that do not include Ukraine. As discussions between American and Russian officials took place in Riyadh—marking a significant diplomatic moment since the war began in February 2022—Zelenskyy emphasized that Ukraine's sovereignty must be respected in any negotiations about its future. This position highlights his insistence that Ukraine must have a seat at the table in determining its own fate. Zelenskyy's rejection demonstrates Ukraine's determination to maintain agency in diplomatic processes, especially as concerns grow about Ukrainian and European voices potentially being sidelined in international negotiations regarding the conflict.
