Ukraine ready to decide for peace- Jailonski

President Jailonsky said, “Ukraine is ready for such real decisions that can bring peace. But any decision that is against us, in our absence and what is against peace, nothing will be gained from decisions. They will only be dead decisions, absolutely impractical and we all need a real peace.

Putin does not trust our people- Jailonsky

Jailonsky further said, “President Putin did not believe our people and that is why he took a disappointing decision to capture Ukraine. It was his biggest mistake to ignore Ukraine citizens.”
