Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Tuesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin wants Kyiv to withdraw from the remaining 30% of the Donbas region that it controls as part of a ceasefire deal,

Citing a report from his intelligence and military commands, Zelenskyy said in a statement that Putin "is definitely not preparing for a ceasefire or an end to the war. Putin is determined only to present a meeting with America as his personal victory and then continue acting exactly as before, applying the same pressure on Ukraine as before."
