A senior Ukrainian official said peace talks with Russia are “out of the question” after Russia’s latest bombardments, which included at least 100 missiles shot on Friday alone.
“In periodic ‘peace and talks’ rhetoric the Kremlin says it won’t leave the [Ukraine] territories & won’t be responsible for crimes,”. “It’s another proof that talks are out of the question. Only [Ukraine] victory, otherwise the war in Europe won’t end, and [Russia] will criminally dominate the world.”
The meeting, held virtually, was attended by representatives of 35 countries including the United States, Germany, and Australia.“If there’s an Olympics sport with killings and missile strikes, you know which national team would take the first place,” Zelensky told the attendees. “Terror and Olympism are two opposites, they cannot be combined.”, signaling that the UK is on board with banning Russia from the upcoming Olympic games.
Separately, Zelensky met with JPMorgan Chase to talk about private capital helping to fund Ukraine’s rebuilding.“We discussed the creation of a platform for attracting private capital to rebuild Ukraine, as well as promising directions of large investment projects in Ukraine, in particular in green energy, IT and agricultural technologies,” Zelensky wrote Saturday.
