Do Ukrainian soldiers agree that the land they are fighting for can remain in Russian hands in exchange for a ceasefire?

Ramsay said he understood that Zelensky is still very determined - and although he can be quite sharp with reporters at times, he was "very nice".

He stated that he has a feeling that there are changes in the minds of Ukrainians and they may accept that they will have to give up something for the war to end. sky news, the Telegraph reports.


"I went to a funeral yesterday. I've been to a lot of funerals," Ramsay said.

"And I was talking to the soldiers whose commander died. They said they wanted to continue fighting. But if the president says, we will have a truce and part of the land they fought for will remain with the Russians, we would accept," he added.

"I never thought I'd hear that," Stuart continued in amazement.

He added that "the loss of soldiers is something everyone in the presidency cares about" - as well as the level of civilian suffering in general.

Zelensky said during the interview that a ceasefire agreement could be reached if the Ukrainian territory he controls could be taken "under the NATO umbrella" - allowing him to negotiate the return of the rest later "diplomatically". /Telegraph/
