Ukrainian MP: ‘We Do Not Quite Believe that the Diplomatic Solution Is Possible’

EXCERPT:

RUDIK: "Well, we want to think that here on the ground, because for us, a lot is in the stake. But also, we do not quite believe that the diplomatic solution is possible here. And we have been saying this since the day one. Until you know, what is the way to make sure that Putin will keep his part of the bargain, you cannot get to the table with him. And what we see right now, it is still unclear what security guarantees can be presented to Ukraine. And instead, there is a hope that Putin somehow will want to end the war. However, there has not been a single fact up until right now that would confirm that he wants to end the war, that he is ready to end the war. He continues attacking our cities. There is still push on the frontline, and the air raid siren in Kyiv went off just a couple of hours ago."
