Zelenskiy supports an immediate ceasefire along the current front line and subsequent negotiations, but categorically opposes the transfer to Russia of the part of Donbass that remains under Ukrainian control.
"This is a simple way to negotiate with the Russians: put pressure on us to leave Donbass, and then an agreement will be concluded. We are not ready for such an agreement. Of course, it's easier to put pressure on us. But I hope that the US will find another way, and together with Europe we trust that," replied Zelensky.
