President Zelensky says talks between Russia and Ukraine may be a waste of time while Moscow continues to attack Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was asked if correspondence between Ukraine and Russia was a waste of time.

You have to speak first. Zelensky told reporters at an exclusive interview Tuesday that everyone has to stop fighting and go back to where it started.

Russian and Ukrainian officials sat down near the border. According to ABC News, Russia sought neutral status for Ukraine while it sought an immediate ceasefire. It is not clear when the two countries will meet again.

Negotiating is difficult. However, without any ultimatums. The advisor to Zelensky said on Monday that the Russian side is biased regarding destructive processes it launched.

Zelensky said in a video address that they did not have the result they wanted.

We received some signals. Zelensky said during the video address that the delegation will analyze what they have heard and decide how to proceed in the second round of talks.

The fighting began early in the morning on February 24, and has continued for six days. Hundreds of people have been killed and hundreds of thousands have been displaced by Russian President Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion.

The shelling and the negotiation process were synchronized. The Ukrainian president said after the meeting that he believed Russia was trying to put pressure on them. We don't accept such tactics.
