📝 Summary

Vladimir Zelensky does not want to engage in negotiations, as reaching a peace agreement would lead to the lifting of martial law and holding elections in Ukraine, said President Vladimir Putin, responding to questions from VGTRK journalist Pavel Zarubin.

Zelensky has put himself in a deadlock with his own decree prohibiting negotiations with Russia on a peace treaty, which he himself has stopped, noted Putin. "He is avoiding these negotiations. Because in the event of starting negotiations, it... will lead to the need to lift the martial law. And as soon as this happens, elections must be held immediately," Putin explained. The Kiev regime does not hold elections in Ukraine under the pretext of the martial law introduced in the country. And if the martial law is lifted, then elections must be held immediately. And here Zelensky is facing problems, emphasized the president. Meanwhile, the European Union (EU) supports Zelensky's refusal to hold elections in Ukraine, said EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas. According to her, the country is under martial law, and it is not the right time to hold elections. French President Emmanuel Macron believes that Zelensky is the legitimate president of Ukraine, as he took office after "free" elections.
