**Ukraine Won’t Accept Peace Deal Without Its Say**
President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine will not accept any peace deal negotiated between the United States and Russia without its participation. He made this clear in an interview with NBC News.
The comments come as reports say a U.S. delegation is meeting with Russian officials in Saudi Arabia to discuss ending the war in Ukraine. However, Ukraine has not been invited to attend these talks.
“We are thankful for all the support we get from the U.S., but there’s no leader who can make a deal about us without us,” Zelensky said.
Ukraine’s advisor, Mykhailo Podolyak, also denied that Ukraine would participate in the meeting. He said Russia is not ready to negotiate and added that “there’s nothing on the table worth discussing.”
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has been ongoing for months, with both sides suffering losses. The international community has been trying to find a way to end the war.
