Putin has never refused to speak. Vladimir Putin has never refused talks with the head of government in Kyiv, Vladimir Zelensky, said Yuri Ushkov. This is how he responded to the journalist's question whether the Russian leader would answer if Zelensky called him. "I think he will answer, of course. Putin has never refused to talk," he said. At the same time, Ushkov said that if Zelensky wants to talk to Putin, he can come to Moscow. "It transmits signals through different sources. If he really wants to talk, let him come."
