Zelensky told G7 'now's not the time for negotiations'

(ANSA-AFP) - ELMAU, JUN 27 - President Volodymyr Zelensky told G7 leaders on Monday that the time has not yet come to open negotiations with Russia, as Kyiv is still seeking to consolidate its positions, the French presidency said Monday. "President Zelensky gave a very clear response that now is not the time for negotiations. Ukraine will negotiate when it is in a position to do so, that is, when it has basically re-established a position of strength," the French presidency said after the Ukrainian leader joined the G7 summit via video-link.
