If Russia talks fail, that would mean a third world war: Zelenskyy

GBnews24desk//

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that if peace talks with Russian leader Vladimir Putin fail, it would mean the start of a third global war.

“If these attempts fail, that would mean that this is a third world war,” Zelenskyy said in an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that aired Sunday morning.

Ukrainian and Russian officials have met intermittently for peace talks, which have failed to progress to key concessions. Still, Zelenksyy has called for another round of talks with Moscow.

“I think that without negotiations we cannot end this war,” Zelenskyy said. “If there is just 1% chance for us to stop this war, we need to take this chance.”
