Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced Monday from Kyiv that his nation stands prepared to engage in U.S.-supported peace negotiations immediately, though he acknowledged that international allies are currently preoccupied with the escalating Iran situation.
The Ukrainian leader revealed that the United States has requested to delay a scheduled diplomatic meeting due to the shifting focus toward Iranian activities in the region.
In a post on social media platform X, Zelenskyy accused Russia of attempting to exploit the Middle East tensions for strategic advantage. He warned that Moscow seeks to transform Iran’s attacks on neighboring countries and American military installations into “a second front of Russia’s war against Ukraine.”
