UKRAINE'S Volodymyr Zelensky says Russia’s position in negotiations is becoming ‘more realistic’.
President Zelensky provided a more optimistic view of the positions of Ukraine and Russia at upcoming peace talks.
He said negotiations are sounding “more realistic” while his top aide indicated there were still “fundamental contradictions” in Russia’s response.
In a national address, Zelenskiy said: "Meetings continue. I am told that the positions at the negotiations sound more realistic.
"However, more time is still needed for decisions to be in the interests of Ukraine.”
However, Vladimir Putin has accused Kyiv of not being ‘seriously committed’ to peace as explosions rock Ukrainian capital.
A Russian statement said: "Vladimir Putin laid out his principled assessments of the ongoing talks between Russian and Ukrainian representatives on an agreement that would take into account Russia's earlier demands.
"He stressed that Kyiv is not showing a serious commitment to finding mutually acceptable solutions."
