He said he also wanted to hear what compromises Moscow would be ready to accept.<\/li>\n<li>Zelenskyy said he was feeling \u201ca little bit\u201d of pressure from Trump, who recently said the Ukrainian should not miss the \u201copportunity\u201d to make peace with Russia soon, and urged him \u201cto get moving\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>He also accused Moscow of seeking to delay decisions by changing its lead negotiator \u2013 from the military intelligence chief Igor Kostyukov during Abu Dhabi talks to President Vladimir Putin\u2019s adviser, Vladimir Medinsky, in the Geneva round.<\/li>\n<li>Zelenskyy said that US negotiators had told Ukraine the Russians had promised a swift end to the war if Ukrainian forces immediately withdrew from the part of the eastern Donetsk region that it still controls. Ukraine had rejected that idea and instead expressed a readiness to discuss a US plan for a free trade zone in the region, while freezing the rest of the 1,200km (745-mile) front line.<\/li>\n<li>Ukraine\u2019s chief negotiator, Rustem Umerov, said the only two options Kyiv is willing to accept are sticking to the current lines of control or the establishment of a free trade zone.<\/li>\n<li>Zelenskyy said he hoped the US would stay involved in the negotiations and that there would be an opportunity for Europe to play a bigger role. \u201cEurope is practically not present at the table,\u201d he said.<\/li>\n<li>Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi told his audience in Munich that he agrees with Zelenskyy\u2019s assessment that Europe should be more involved in efforts to end the war in Ukraine.<\/li>\n<li>Zelenskyy added that Russia had to accept a ceasefire monitoring mission and an exchange of prisoners of war. He estimated that Russia currently had about 7,000 Ukrainian troops, while Kyiv had more than 4,000 Russians.<\/li>\n<li>He also suggested that Moscow was opposed to the deployment of French and UK troops in Ukraine after the war, which Paris and London have said they are willing to do, because Russia\u2019s Putin \u201cwants to have the opportunity to come back\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Politics and diplomacy<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"spaced-bullet-spacing\">\n<li>French Minister of Foreign Affairs Jean-Noel Barrot said some G7 countries had expressed a willingness to move ahead with a maritime services ban on Russian oil, and France is \u201creasonably optimistic a deal can be reached\u201d. He said the EU is currently preparing its 20th sanctions package against Moscow.<\/li>\n<li class=\"tr-story-p1\">Ukraine and the International Monetary Fund\u00a0agreed to ease some conditions, including sensitive tax increases, for a new $8.2bn lending programme, Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said.<\/li>\n<li class=\"tr-story-p1\">The European Union should \u201cbring to life\u201d a mutual defence pact anchored in its founding treaty, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in Munich, as the regional bloc faces new threats from Russia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Olympics<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"spaced-bullet-spacing\">\n<li>Zelenskyy awarded a top state honour to Olympic skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych, who was disqualified from the Winter Olympic Games in Italy for wearing a helmet commemorating athletes killed in the war with Russia.
