Ukraine seeks to end war but will take no unilateral steps, Sybiha says

Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said this at a press conference alongside his Finnish counterpart, Elina Valtonen, and Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide in Helsinki, Ukrinform reports. Sybiha said he had discussed with his Finnish and Norwegian counterparts the phone calls their countries’ leaders had held with Russian President Vladimir Putin that morning, as well as their subsequent conversations with President Volodymyr Zelensky. “We welcome this active support for our diplomatic efforts and the peace process. I want to emphasize once again: Ukraine wants to end this war. We have realistic proposals and solutions. We are ready for a partial ceasefire and a complete cessation of hostilities. Of course, everything must be fair.
