President Volodymyr Zelensky, while speaking with journalists, described the discussions that arose between the Ukrainian and Russian sides during the trilateral negotiations in Abu Dhabi. The main discrepancy concerned the scale of control over the territories of Donetsk region.
According to the head of state, the Ukrainian negotiating team found out that Russian representatives have a significantly distorted view of the real situation in Donbas. The Russian side insisted that their army had captured half of the territory of the region currently controlled by Ukraine.
Zelensky emphasised that Russian military and intelligence officers seriously argued their position, claiming the occupation of significant territories. The Ukrainian team was surprised by such a presentation of facts, as Ukrainian soldiers continue to hold these positions.
"They (Russians, — ed.) still have different information. Russians think, they shared this, that they really occupied half of the Donbas territory, which we actually control. Half. It is not one village. And there were military, intelligence from their side, who spoke very seriously about it. Our team thinks: 'How can they even talk about this? Our soldiers are there'. This is a problem that we live in different planes. I think that Putin lives a bit in another. Different information. It is another reality. Putin himself lives in another reality", — noted Zelensky.
In response to such claims, the Ukrainian delegation stated that it has video and other evidence of control over these areas.
The President added that Volodymyr Putin uses similar rhetoric in dialogues with the American side, claiming that he has only 1-2-3 months left until the full occupation of eastern Ukraine.
"Of course, I can also draw a picture for him. And it will be total occupation. But this is not true. This is not reality... Could I forgive Putin on the last day of my life? No. Russians do not realize that they are the aggressors. This is already a matter for courts and history", — emphasised the President.
At the same time, Zelensky underlined the importance of confirmation from the US. According to him, the American side confirmed the Ukrainian assessment and the reality on the battlefield.
"Americans, by the way, what was good, — they said that they confirmed the Ukrainian assessment, the reality on the battlefield. This was also important", — stated the President.
The head of state also noted that Ukraine is ready to discuss territorial issues, but such negotiations must take place with the participation of leaders.
