Ukraine, as President Zelensky clearly stated, is ready for negotiations to end the war under the strong leadership of President Trump. The "Batkivshina" team is conducting negotiations with all our allies who are capable of helping ensure a fair peace as soon as possible.

Axar.az reports that this was stated by Ukraine's former Prime Minister and leader of the Batkivshina Party, Yulia Tymoshenko, in response to reports about her secret meetings with Trump’s representatives.

"Up until this point, and I have said this more than once, there can be no talk of holding any elections in Ukraine," she wrote.

Ex-President Petro Poroshenko's team also responded to the reports, emphasizing that they work 'publicly and transparently' with U.S. partners to ensure bipartisan support for Ukraine, while reaffirming his opposition to holding elections during the war.

Notably, Politico reported that high-ranking officials from U.S. President Donald Trump's inner circle were holding secret talks with President Vladimir Zelensky's opponents, with representatives from Yulia Tymoshenko and Petro Poroshenko's parties also participating in the meetings.
