KYIV – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in a video address released early on Wednesday (March 16) that the positions of Ukraine and Russia at peace talks were sounding more realistic but more time was needed.
A senior Ukrainian official said on Tuesday that talks with Russia were very difficult but there was “certainly room for compromise,” adding that negotiations would continue on Wednesday.
