Zelensky, in an interview with CNN Turk, confirmed his willingness to meet with Vladimir Putin on the Turkish website. "Yes, we are ready. We are ready for this meeting in Turkey," he said, noting that Recep Tayyip Erdogan "has his own communication channel with Putin," and therefore Kiev supports holding negotiations there. Earlier, the assistant of the Russian president, Yuri Ushkov, said that the Ukrainian side is sending signals of readiness for dialogue through various channels.
