єрмак

The current government of Ukraine will not agree to freeze the war and will continue to pursue the liberation of the occupied territories of Ukraine.

According to Censor.NET, this was stated by the head of the President's Office, Andriy Yermak, in Davos following discussions of the Ukrainian peace formula, Radio Liberty reports.

He said: "This president and his team will never agree to or accept any kind of freezing of the conflict. This is unacceptable to Ukrainian society... Ukraine does not need frozen conflicts. Ukraine needs a just peace. And Ukraine wants to prevent any potential aggression in the future and is using this opportunity."

Summing up the fourth round of negotiations on Ukraine's plan to end the war, which brought together more than 80 countries and organisations from Europe, Asia and the Global South, the head of the Presidential Office noted that all participants had a common vision of the general principles of the peace formula, which relate to Ukraine's independence, territorial integrity and the UN Charter. Regarding the details of the plan, Yermak noted that "it would be a lie if I said that all positions are exactly the same".

"It is important that all the countries involved (in the discussions - ed.) truly and sincerely want to participate and help end this war and establish peace. But there are different opinions and ideas on how this can be done. Different countries have different experiences... And this is good, because a universal formula and plan is a combination of different positions and efforts, but, again, based on the basic principles on which international law and the UN Charter are based," the official said.

Yermak also assured that Ukraine's partners are not pushing it to make territorial concessions.

"Our partners already know us and our position and respect it... I have participated in almost all high-level meetings, including those of leaders, and I have never heard any of our partners discuss any compromise on our part that is unacceptable to us. Including the issue of Crimea," he concluded.
