Zelensky to Rubio: There is no diplomatic dead end

The Ukrainian President said this during a briefing in Pryluky, according to an Ukrinform correspondent. Asked whether the war was indeed at an impasse, as Rubio had put it, Zelensky said: “You cannot, you understand, on the one hand negotiate with the ‘Russians’ about some economic projects for the future, and on the other say that we are in some kind of political situation, a diplomatic dead end, and so on. We are not at a diplomatic dead end. Shut down his [Putin’s – ed.] entire economy. Silence Russia. Stop feeding them with your sales. Just impose sanctions on their weapons. Turn on Starlink for us, for Ukraine.” The President separately drew attention to the situation with Starlink.
