Ukraine’s Zelensky calls for immediate peace talks with Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has on Saturday called for meaningful peace and security talks “without delay” with Moscow.

He said it was Russia’s only chance to limit the damage from its “mistakes” in the wake of its invasion.

“This is the only chance for Russia to reduce the damage from its own mistakes,” Zelensky said in his nightly video address.

“It’s time to meet, it’s time to talk, it’s time to restore territorial integrity and justice for Ukraine.

“Otherwise, Russia’s losses will be such that you will need several generations to recover.”

This is coming as Ukraine’s Armed Forces said that its air defences had destroyed at least 12 Russian air targets – two planes, three helicopters, three drones and four cruise missiles.

Local reports citing an adviser to the head of the President’s office added that armed forces had also hit the Chornobaivka airfield, where Russia had placed part of its fleet – for the sixth time.
