Putin sends a signal to Zelensky. "He is ready"

Dmitry Peskov stated that Vladimir Putin is open to a phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky if initiated by him. However, no call has been received from Zelensky yet. Peskov also mentioned that Putin is willing to engage with foreign leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Earlier, Yuri Ushakov suggested that Zelensky could visit Moscow for a meeting, but this proposal faced criticism from Ukrainian officials, who emphasized that any meeting should not take place in Russia or Belarus. Discussions about potential contacts between the leaders continue, but no specific dates for talks have been established.
