“It is vital for Ukraine that Russia finds the strength to end this unjust war,” Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated during his first visit to Azerbaijan since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, as he said Baku could mediate the diplomatic process to put an end to Moscow’s all-out war.
Standing next to Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev, Zelenskyy said that “we have informed the president of Azerbaijan that we are ready for trilateral talks,” adding that Kyiv has already held such talks in Turkey and Switzerland.
