Any peace talks should not take place without Ukraine’s participation - Duda

Polish President Andrzej Duda said that potential peace talks should take place only with the participation of Ukraine.
He said this during a press conference with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Censor.NET reports.
"We also talked about potential negotiations. Potential, because there are no peace talks between Ukraine and Russia yet. Regarding potential negotiations, I guaranteed, I assured Mr. President (Zelenskyy - Ed.) that in any forums where I speak, I will demand that Ukraine should be present at the negotiating table.
That no peaceful negotiations can take place without Ukraine's participation. Ukraine should always be represented at the table of such negotiations," he emphasized.
Duda also noted that Poland wants Ukraine to exist as an independent state, where the Ukrainian people will decide their own fate.
"I guaranteed the president that Poland will always support Ukraine at any forum," the Polish leader added.
