President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine has expressed readiness for an unconditional 30-day ceasefire.
Zelenskyy, however, said Russia must stop setting conditions for him to implement the ceasefire.
He disclosed this during a telephone conversation with the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, on Monday.
According to Zelenskyy: “I spoke with President of France @EmmanuelMacron. As always, it was a very constructive conversation.
“We discussed the results of the leaders’ online meeting that took place on Saturday. The coalition of countries willing to work with us to bring about a just and lasting peace is growing. This is very important.
“Ukraine is ready for an unconditional 30-day ceasefire. However, for its implementation, Russia must stop setting conditions.
“We also spoke about this with President Macron. Additionally, we talked about the work of our teams in formulating clear security guarantees.
“France’s position on this matter is very specific, and we fully support it. We continue to work and coordinate the next steps and contacts with our partners.
“Thank you for all the efforts toward achieving peace as soon as possible.”
