KYIV – The United States wants Moscow and Kiev to find
a solution on how to end the war in Ukraine before summer,
President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
In remarks to reporters released from his office on February 7
after two days of U.S.-brokered talks between Ukraine and Russia
in Abu Dhabi this week,
Zelensky said that Washington had proposed talks in Miami
within a week and that Kiev had agreed to them.
Zelensky also criticized Russia for overnight attacks on
Ukrainian energy facilities, saying in comments posted on X
that Moscow must be deprived of the ability to use the cold
winter weather against Kiev.
“The Americans are proposing that the parties end the war before
the start of this summer and will probably pressure the parties
to adhere to this timetable,” Zelensky said.
"The (November midterm US congressional)
elections are definitely more important to them.
Let's not be naive. And they say they want to get everything done
by June," he said.
