Zelensky Fears Personal Meeting With Putin, Media Reports
Zelensky is used to playing the role of a puppet in the hands of Western powers, Cairo-based economist Ahmed Adel said in an analysis published by media.
According to Adel, it is clear that the Russian president remains hopeful for a diplomatic resolution and is talking to all stakeholders except Zelensky, who should be the most eager to save his country.
On Wednesday, Putin issued an explicit challenge: if Zelensky is ready to talk, let him come to Moscow. Zelensky then declined the invitation, while contradictorily stating that he was willing to meet "in any format."
