Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said he is uninterested in holding peace talks with Vladimir Putin, branding him a 'nobody'
Volodymyr Zelensky has said he is uninterested in holding peace talks with Vladimir Putin, branding him a "nobody", as he called on Ukraine's allies to send more weapons to support the war effort.Mr Zelenskyy thanked Western countries for agreeing to send powerful modern tanks to Ukraine, but called for them to supply fighter jets to support the war effort further.
Former deputy permanent representative of Germany to NATO and ambassador Ekkehard Brose told LBC's Nick Ferrari this morning that while Germany's decision to send tanks to Ukraine was "momentous", Western countries should not get "carried away" by sending fighter jets.He continued: "It was a process among many of the countries that support Ukraine in its fight against the Russian invasion and the important thing to all of us was that the process ended in unity.
Asked by Sky News if he would meet Mr Putin for peace talks, Mr Zelensky said: "It is not interesting for me. Not interesting to meet, not interesting to speak... I really don't understand who makes decisions in Russia."It comes after the Ukrainian ambassador to the UK Vadim Prystaiko told LBC's Andrew Marr last night that the promised new tanks were a "game-changer" that could help Ukraine push the Russian forces back further.
Germany said on Wednesday that it would send 14 Leopard tanks to Ukraine and gave permission for 14 allies to send theirs too, striking a blow in favour of Kyiv as it continues to battle Russia's invasion. Russia branded Germany's move to send tanks to Ukraine a "blatant provocation" and issued a chilling warning that the new kit will "burn like all the rest"
