Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky once again stressed his readiness to hold talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

APA reports quoting UNIAN that Zelenski said this during an online press conference for media representatives in Denmark.

According to him, today only the president of Russia decides whether the Russian army will stop or not.

"If Russia wants to end the war, they must sit at the negotiating table.

Negotiations are not possible without Ukraine.

Therefore, it must be done directly.

We can talk with or without intermediaries.

"If the Russian Federation is ready to end the war and leave our territories, I am personally ready for such a format at any time," Zelensky said.

He added that no matter how difficult it is, every effort should be made to end the war.
