(Reuters) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday that Russia was continuing its attacks on Ukraine and had made no response to a proposal for direct talks in Turkey this week in a “strange silence.”
“Russian shelling and assaults continue,” Zelenskiy said in his nightly video address. “Moscow has remained silent all day regarding the proposal for a direct meeting. A very strange silence.”
Zelenskiy repeated that U.S. President Donald Trump supported the proposed meeting “and we would like him to find the opportunity to be in Turkey.”
