President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine said on Sunday he was ready to negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin but not willing to yield on his nation’s territorial integrity.
During the interview with Zakaria, he displayed a wide range of emotions, including defiance in the face of the invasion, pride in how his nation has responded, frustration with other world leaders for not taking his previous warnings about Russia seriously, concern about what Russian President Vladimir Putin might do next, and despair over the losses that his nation is suffering. “Unfortunately, our dignity is not going to preserve lives,” he said at one point.
Zelenskyy, who became president in 2019, also said that he had been saying for years that Ukraine deserved to be fully integrated into Europe, as a member of both NATO and the European Union. He said even the promise of those things could have helped block Russian expansionist policies. “I told them that we are running out of time,” he said. “You have to admit Ukraine into NATO right now. We did not have much time. You have to accept Ukraine as a member of the EU. We deserve these alliances.”
