a detailed plan, and then, when this development is in place, this means that russia cannot block it, even the beginning of the peace process, and if there is already a concrete plan, after that this agreed plan will be handed over to the representatives of the russian federation, and then with with you we will see if they are ready for the end of the war. these are the conditions.

to get support for other points of the ukrainian peace formula, including the withdrawal of russian forces from all ukrainian territory, for the question, firstly, not signing, but joining, and this is an important difference, because join the communique, says that the communique is open, and even the country. who are now thinking about joining, they have proper consultations at home, there are other countries that have represented themselves at different levels, they should come back, there are different countries with different opinions, and we should respect each and everyone's opinion, if they are not occupiers, i it seems so, and so the potential number will increase, that's clear, there are also a number of countries that have not been able to... be at

the highest level, as will join the communique, well in any case we will see, about the numbers, they are clear, 90 or so countries were supposed to join around 90, 84 or 83 joined immediately, well, this is a very serious result, i think it is very successful, honestly, as far as with, as you said, potentially problematic, i believe we don't have potentially. and the real problem of the whole world today is with the russian federation, not the whole world has understood it yet, because the war is with us, our neighbors have understood it well, because the war will be with them tomorrow, and the whole of europe has already understood absolutely everything, realizing that the day after tomorrow he comrade putin, he will get there, because this is his goal, and it is very important. what the representatives

of the countries of the african continent, asia, etc. say, blocking the black sea, it was not ukraine that blocked it, everyone admits, russia blocked it, which brought hunger, grief, problems in these countries, where the same people live, and therefore i believe that this is the main problem. and the fact that some countries, they have their own view on the war in ukraine, it is very difficult for them, the great influence, er, long, historical influence of the soviet union on relations, on relations with by these people, and all this has an effect, after all, the truth will still find a door, you know, to anyone. thank you, mr. president, you

mentioned before that saudi arabia is one of the countries that can make decisions of advisers and ministers to prepare a new summit in a few months, what is your view on the position of saudi arabia? and could you share with us any details about these preparatory meetings? thank you and thank you very much. thank you very much, i think you know that we have a very strong relationship of saudi arabia with his royal highness, and you know two, two, two, two days, i think, three days before this summit i had a meeting with his royal highness, and yes. we talked about it, we, we

started talking, we had a very great meeting in jeddah at the nsa level before this summit and in copenhagen. you know, then in jade, very powerful, i think, also in malta, in switzerland, so we have a strong relationship, and that's why, of course, we raised the issue of the next meetings, maybe the next summit, what, what else can i say , we look forward, thank you, please, the next wall street journal question, right there at the end. thank you very much, president zelensky, two questions, if i may, i want to be clear, it sounds like you are saying that if russia comes to the second summit, as many leaders have called for, you will not have

direct exchanges with the russians at this summit, is that true, and secondly, about the situation on the battlefield? are the ukrainian goals for this year now to keep the boundaries where they are and then count on a counteroffensive in 2025 year, and if not, then what are those plans? well , i will not talk about the plans for the battle today, you can hear it now, okay, yes, to be honest, our task today... is to prevent the offensive actions of the russian federation in the kharkiv region from being successful, i think that we had, i think that the situation is better now , it has stabilized, thanks to our soldiers, thank you, and i believe that in the near future,

thanks to our partners, our soldiers will be strengthened and there will be answers to the invaders already on the battlefield. stronger, as far as the war is concerned, i would not think that there will be in the 25th year, etc., everything depends on two things, as i said, about our strength on the battlefield, and also about the strength of political work, diplomatic work, as for diplomatic work, if we succeed in everything, not everything, almost everything, then we will get to the second summit, in the second summit , you ask what... what will happen to russia at the second summit, it will say that they want peace, their presence there will say that they have decided to end the war, i don't want to play with words, they have decided, or they

were forced by the world, for us, citizens of ukraine, to today, we are fighting to force the world, but for us... the main result, the result is the end of this war, and as for the negotiations with russia, i think i said in detail, russia can start tomorrow, by the way, negotiations with us without expecting anything if they leave our legitimate territories, this is simply respect for the un charter. please the following. they are now talking about fatigue in the western world, despite the fact that we live in peace and security,

how do you, how do you make sure that the people of ukraine do not get tired of war how are you how do you make sure that people in ukraine don't get tired of this war, like you, how are you holding on? thanks for the question, and how do you get tired just to speak the same language. how do you feel when you are tired? i've been reporting for nine months from ukraine, and just listening

to people's stories, no, no, no, i'm not talking about people in ukraine, and this is the second part of your question, but you said at the beginning: that in the west, people get tired, and that is why i ask you how you feel what people getting tired? yes, please, i'm quoting my guide now. i hope not everyone thinks like that, but people complain that life is getting more expensive, that this is a war with no winners, russia will win this war because they are huge, ukraine is small, it's david vs. goliath and so on, thank you very much, thank you and thank you, thank you for not being tired, not getting tired, but helping. thank you and your leadership, we will know who is getting tired among you, and we are

not concerned with fatigue, we are concerned with survival, specifically survival, nazi putin has come to us destroy, he has this idea, the idea is fixed, they entered your apartment, a man with a knife... with a machine gun, what will you do, treat him, dance, entertain, or protect your children, your first reaction, this is our reaction , she understood, a vital, human reaction, we are very much with the broadcast, we will try to restore it, but for now... we lost the signal, dear friends, lesya vakulyuk, andriy saichuk, we in this studio are working for you today until 5 p.m., while we are restoring, there is, there is, there is,

there is, we are returning, and we are returning, there is already a signal, will, he will go further, and then no one will think about fatigue anymore, everyone in europe will think about survival, about migration, that's how it will be, and that's why we just have to ... kill this person in any way, we today we are talking about the peace process, we are just proposing a peace process, let's do it diplomatically, it is difficult for people in ukraine, we are all people in ukraine, we understand how difficult it is, and in any case, because of the war, everyone is tired, and this is a fact, it is understandable, but it is a matter of survival for us. you see, he came in, took people's lives

with your military, you saw it, they raped women, children, stole 20,000 children, imagine someone recently said: yes, yes, well, it's like davit with galiaf, it is, you just have to, you just have to find it somehow. i'm giving you an example of just children, the same with adults, the same with all these crimes, and how you can forgive it, i just really don't understand, and you know what's important, very important, why someone whose children are at home today is telling us , what should we do when our children are stolen from us somewhere. that's why it's unfair i would very much like the world not to get tired.

question from china please, gentleman with black bed and white shirt. okay. thank you, president. question from china, hong kong. my question is as follows. you said that china is a tool in the hands of russia, and sometimes you say that china is an important part of the promotion of peace, the peace process in ukraine, so, that is, now, in what way do you think, what is the role of china, or is china an enemy of ukraine, or this is a partner of ukraine, and the second question, do you know? that the summit at the level of leaders, president biden, leader xi, these

the leaders are not here and you rejected putin's offer, so what are you sure about this peace process that represents the logo from this summit behind you. and what about the logo was asked, i simply asked how strongly you are convinced of sustainability. the process that you initiate under the logo of this summit, which is behind you. thank you for so many questions from the chinese side, and no answer yet. and we respect china and have always respected the territorial integrity and sovereignty of your state, everything,

that we wanted china to respect the territorial integrity of ukraine and our sovereignty. we respect your people, your values, life and your choices, and we would like china to do the same, no more, no less, china is a very serious country, a serious economy that has a political economic influence on russia, it really has influence, i believe that china could help us to... and therefore i would very much like some or other proposals that the chinese side has to be in our dialogue, i cannot accept proposals simply through the media, you see, it's wrong, we're talking about

the end of the war, thousands of victims, go ahead. territories, burned houses, i cannot take very seriously the fact that, with all due respect to journalists, but what the leader of this or that state or his representatives conveyed to the media, we are talking about the end of the war, as for china, ukraine never said , that china is our enemy, and... i ask you not to use such things, i always say that ukraine has only one enemy, putin, because it was he who attacked us. as for friends, i believe that friends are those who they help when it is difficult, and i would like

china to be a friend to ukraine. china and ukraine were serious economies. partners, i say, were, not because they stopped economic relations, no, but because putin blocked the black sea, our largest volume, we had the largest trade in the agro-industrial complex was along the black sea, and that is why he stopped and reduced trade between our states, this is very important, further, when i said that china... a tool, i said specific things, putin misinformation, or it doesn't matter how, did all that the representatives of the state of china work with other diplomatic institutions of other countries so that they withdraw their

presence and support for ukraine, and... join the sino-brazilian proposals, and i think this is wrong, so i emphasize once again, each country and each leader has the right to their own position, without breaking the other, i think so, we need to respect each other, all i want is for us to respect each other, all i want is peace. country, thank you. next question, please, rada tv. ukraine. mr. president, congratulations. at such a high diplomatic level, i would like to recall the words that when diplomats speak, guns are silent, this weekend they were not silent in ukraine,

russian missiles were flying. in this regard , i want to ask you how diplomacy can, or is possible. should make the russians lock their guns and sit down at the table and have a civilized dialogue, and can diplomacy alone do that. thank you. diplomats speak, cannons are silent. so, putin is not, not a diplomat. that is, it is necessary. to look for other tools besides diplomacy, a strong army is needed, there must be strong, these people understand only strength, i see only such. ways: strengthening on the battlefield and parallel strengthening of international politics and everything related to demonstration,

strengthening of diplomacy, i consider today a good start right here. we have 5 minutes left, i want to give the floor to a journalist from latin america or possibly from the spanish-language media. latin america, hispanic media, no? okay, voice of america then. no, not spanish-speaking, but. voice of america. my question is about the war and the support it receives ukraine from the international community. he recently said that the aid for ukraine was not enough. and was she often late, or is she still insufficient and late? help is there, are there

serious packages? is she enough to win? no, is she late? yes. will there be a strengthening of these packages, we are working on it, we are working daily, thank you, maybe a question from africa, is there someone from the media from africa, francophone or from africa, and okay, congratulations, mr. president, thank you for answering our questions. i have a question: because of a political one the instability that is happening in france, as you have seen, and the parties that may come

to power in the coming weeks, they have members that are pro-russian, as you know, our president said that he will send mirage 2000 to ukraine, are you afraid , that it can change, and the positions in the defense industry also that... ukraine: stabilize, stabilize the political situation in any country, we cannot, because we cannot interfere in any processes inside other countries. i will tell you frankly: president macron did not tell me that the situation is more difficult now, and aid will decrease, we will be in...

thank you very much for answering my question, putin still has many friends, and some of the countries that have ties with russia did not support the declaration of this summit, he him. it is possible to keep his friends close to him. he says he is fighting for a multipolar world. but in his view, this, this is based on his interests, power and other means of violence. can you please, because during the summit you also talked about multipolarity. can you please tell if he is really fighting for a multipolar world? and what is your view of this world? i believe that putin is fighting solely for himself, honestly, he understands that he is isolated,

and not completely isolated, you are absolutely right here, unfortunately, there are, you know, there are people who are still balancing despite all the terrorism that he brought not only to our country, but many countries of the world, and africa, and syria, everywhere. and yet, you know, there are people who balance, unfortunately, and he understands how, well, in my opinion, and it's subjective, maybe it's biased, in my opinion, he's struggling exclusively for himself, how can he overcome the isolation that is now, this is no longer an eight, he is no longer a player for many countries, by the way, he is not a player for china either, we raised this issue, well, i am sure of it, i am sure in this, they all understand that he will finish. anyway, either, or respecting international law, or he's going to do some radical things, which of- which will lead

anyway to... his isolation, and so i think he's thinking about the bipolarity of the world today, he's trying to to divide, because to get out it is impossible for him to isolate himself, so he must do everything so that someone joins him, joins him, well, our task is to do everything so that skepticism is better than skepticism, to remain, would remain skeptic, than to take the side of russia. our task is to do everything so that his isolation is understood by his society, so that he has pressure inside his ukraine, then there is an opportunity, i think, to end this war diplomatically, although i believe that he has it in his plans, he thinks , which can divide both europe and other unions by the fact

that... can provoke an invasion of others states, including nato, in order to, well, really try to break unity, you understand, yes, because people will react differently to this, absolutely, we must not allow this to happen, ukraine is the key, unfortunately, we pay with our lives , but nevertheless, as long as ukraine stands, the world has a chance to...

could you answer us the question, why did they ultimately fail these negotiations? because no ultimatums are negotiations, with these ultimatums putin came in tanks during a full-scale invasion. they surrounded ours the capital, many regions of our country, were occupied, well, i already talked about all the atrocities, and they showed an ultimatum, nothing changed, then there were these ultimatums, there were many different ones, by the way, it is almost no different from the last one, as a colleague said, of the latest proposals, they said

so... what putin had two days ago, because he doesn't have any proposals, he just has an ultimatum, and ultimatums give him the opportunity to pause, to be honest, the minsk agreements, it was an ultimatum and it was frozen conflict, and this is a fact, and for him it needed this pause to prepare for a full-scale tuesday, so any ultimatums for... he needs pauses, pauses, to prepare his military, to train them, because he lost an already trained army. thank you very much, this concludes our press conference, thank you very much, thank you all, all the best, thank you and peace to you, and we also thank you, our dear viewers, who were with us, le vakulyuk aniy saichuk worked in this studio for you, and
