“Our team has already reported today on the new draft of steps, and this is indeed the right approach – I will discuss the sensitive issues with President Trump,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a traditional address to the Ukrainian nation on Nov. 24.
Fellow Ukrainians!
Today our delegation returned from Geneva after negotiations with the American side and European partners. Now the list of necessary steps to end the war can become doable. As of now, after Geneva, there are fewer points – no longer 28 – and many of the right elements have been taken into account in this framework. There is still work for all of us to do together – it is very challenging – to finalize the document, and we must do everything with dignity. We appreciate that most of the world is ready to help us and that the American side is approaching this constructively. Practically the entire day yesterday was filled with meetings – and it was challenging, extremely thorough work.
Today, the entire day has been devoted to coordination with our partners in Europe. I have already spoken with the Presidents of Finland and Lithuania, with the President of the European Council, and with the Prime Ministers of Norway and Spain. I thank all of them for their clear and sincere support – for all the information that helps us. Ukraine is not alone, and that is important.
