If there is someone who does not want to meet, it is of course suitable to suggest something that cannot possibly be accepted, says Zelenskyj in an interview with ABC News.
I cannot go to Moscow when my country is being attacked with rockets every day. I cannot go to the capital of this terrorist, he continues.
Putin "understands this", according to Zelenskyj, and means that the offer is a way for the Russian president to postpone the meeting, he says.
A meeting between Putin and Zelenskyj has been pointed out by the US President Donald Trump as a priority to reach a peace agreement after the Russian war of aggression.
We cannot trust Putin. He is just playing with the USA, that's how I see it, says Zelenskyj.
It was during a press conference in Beijing on Wednesday that Putin said he was ready to meet Zelenskyj in Moscow. He repeated at the same time that Ukraine must not become a member of Nato and also claimed that Russia is not after territories but "fighting for the rights of the people".
