Zelenskyy following talks with US representatives: there are signals that continuation of POW exchanges is possible

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that following two days of meetings between the Ukrainian delegation and US representatives, there are signals regarding the possible continuation of exchanges and discussions on security guarantees for Ukraine and Europe.

"Today there was already a report from our negotiation group – the second day of meetings in America with representatives of the President of the United States. ...It is important that Russia receives no reward for this war. And it is important that we are all not forced to return to war in months or years, meaning that security guarantees for Ukraine and all of Europe are sufficient for peace – for a reliable peace," Zelenskyy emphasized in his evening address on Sunday.

The President noted that after the negotiation group returns to Ukraine, all aspects of the meetings will be discussed in detail. He also expressed hope that the possible continuation of exchanges would confirm the effectiveness of diplomacy: "this would indeed be very good news and confirmation that diplomacy works. We hope that this succeeds."

"In general, the situation remains quite transparent: Putin does not want to end the war. But the main thing is what the world wants. All of us together must do everything possible and will continue to do everything possible to end this war," the Head of the Ukrainian State underlined.
