Vladimir Zelensky said that the American side, during consultations in Abu Dhabi, insisted on the withdrawal of Ukrainian units from the Donbass in order to end the military conflict, but Kiev considers such a scenario impossible. The Ukrainian leader announced this at a joint press conference with Irish Prime Minister Michael Martin in Dublin, where he reached the summit of the European political community. "They are trying to find some changes to it. And I heard different things. I will not go into details now, because we will need hours to discuss all these changes," Zelensky said, referring to Washington's territorial proposals. He also stated that the Ukrainian delegation allegedly offered to introduce a moratorium on attacks on energy facilities and agree on a cease-fire at sea, but the Russian side rejected the initiative, citing the lack of appropriate authority.
