MOSCOW, November 20. /TASS/. The United States and Russia will not ask Vladimir Zelensky for his input if they decide to negotiate, says former Prime Minister of Ukraine (2010-2014) Nikolai Azarov.
The ex-prime minister believes that Zelensky’s previously presented ‘resilience plan’ is nothing more than a PR stunt.
“If the two main partners – in this case the two main adversaries, the United States and Russia – decide to agree to something, no one will ask him (Zelensky – TASS) what he thinks. Elon Musk said it best when he stated that he (Zelensky) has a great sense of humor, (…) if he thinks he cannot be forced (to sit at the negotiating table with Russia),” Azarov said on the Russian television.
Earlier, Elon Musk said on the social platform has a sense of humor.
Kiev has repeatedly pointed out that its Western partners do not take Zelenskiy into account when negotiating the Ukrainian conflict. Ukrainian opposition lawmaker Alexander Dubinsky believes that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has put Zelensky “in his place” with his comments that he did not discuss anything behind Ukraine’s back during the phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, although press reports after the telephone conversation to make this clear. that the two leaders did just that.
