Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that his nation will not cede any of its territories, despite Russia's aspirations to acquire them. He revealed this during an interview with CNN Türk, as reported by UATV English. Zelenskyy suggested that there were indications U.S. President Donald Trump intended to extend a G20 summit invitation to him, potentially leading to a process aimed at ending the conflict.
If such an official invitation materializes, Zelenskyy affirmed that Kyiv would provide its support. The Ukrainian President also addressed Russia's demand for security assurances, questioning whom Russia is concerned about. He noted that Russia is keeping the matter up for discussion and hinted that all parties involved are prepared to consider it.
Zelenskyy emphasized that Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity cannot be debated without Ukraine's active participation. Earlier, he had mentioned the possibility of a trilateral meeting involving Ukraine, the United States, and Russia at the G20 summit in December, which could yield tangible results. In a separate interview with TSN.Tyzhden, Zelenskyy reiterated Ukraine's refusal to embrace neutrality or impose restrictions on its armed forces, asserting that territorial disputes could only be addressed at the highest level of leadership.
