Russia responds to Zelensky’s ‘Minsk 3’ comments

President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, has said that during his virtual conference with G20 leaders that Russia’s war “must end now.”

He also ruled out a third “Minsk agreement,” which alludes to two failed cease-fire agreements between Kiev and Moscow over the future of the eastern Donbas region.

Mr Zelensky said during his video call: “We will not allow Russia to wait, build up its forces, and then start a new series of terror and global destabilisation.

“There will be no Minsk 3, which Russia will violate immediately after the agreement.”

However, Russia has been critical of the Ukrainian president’s statement.

The RIA Novosti news agency reports that Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Zelensky’s comments over the “Minsk 3” deal shows Russia that Kyiv is not interested in holding peace talks.
