“These were talks on the de-escalation of tensions around Ukraine and Russia, as well as an exchange of views on domestic Ukrainian politics and the human rights situation in the country. European leaders put forward a list of proposals to Zelensky to defuse the situation”, – the source said.
The measures taken, according to the Europeans, will minimize tensions with Russia as well as inside Ukraine. The anonymous source added that the proposals were not publicly voiced and were given to the Ukrainian side in a confidential manner.
