07 March 2022
The next round of talks between Ukraine and Russia will be held on Monday, a member of the Ukrainian delegation, Davyd Arakhamia said APA reports citing the Associated Press.
Arakhamia is head of the parliamentary faction of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Servant of the People party.
The talks to be held on Monday mark the third round of talks between Russia and Ukraine, as the two sides try to negotiate a ceasefire as well as a safe passage corridor for civilians.
The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, in a telephonic conversation with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Friday, said that Russia is open to dialogue with Ukraine, Xinhua news agency reported.
Putin expressed hope that Kyiv would take a "reasonable and constructive stance" during a third round of talks between Russia and Ukraine, according to a report published by Xinhua news agency.
Mykhailo Podolyak, an advisor to Zelenskyy, said Saturday that talks with Russia are beginning to be "constructive," according to media reports. He had participated in the first two rounds of talks held between Russia and Ukraine.
Podolyak said that he had noted a change in Russia’s approach as it realized “the real price of war”.
"At the very start of the war, they were insisting on total domination. They weren't expecting that Ukraine would deliver such severe resistance,” media reports quoted Podolyak as saying in an interview with the Canadian daily The Globe and Mail, in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv.
Podolyak stressed that both sides in the talks had agreed not to discuss details of the negotiations. He said that Ukraine’s objectives remained an immediate ceasefire, security guarantees that the country would not be attacked again, and significant compensation for the loss of life and damage to Ukrainian cities, according to reports.
The last two rounds of talks between Russia and Ukraine were held on February 28 and March 3.
