Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin – the Russian mercenary leader whose plane crashed weeks after he led a mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership – shows what happens when people make deals with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

As Ukraine’s counteroffensive moves into a fourth month, with only modest gains to show so far, Zelensky told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria he rejected suggestions it was time to negotiate peace with the Kremlin.

“When you want to have a compromise or a dialogue with somebody, you cannot do it with a liar,” Volodymyr Zelensky said.

    The president is an ethnic Russian you lying piece of garbage.

    Russia has killed more ethnic Russians than Ukraine (or anyone else) ever has. Including 200k of it’s own soldiers. There is nobody in the world more russophobic than Russia.

    As for “Banderite Nazis” I wonder how much they got in the elections? You know, those things that Russia doesn’t have, unless “United Russia” wins. Every single action taken by Russia over the past decade is an exact reflection of Naziism.

    How can you be so completely and utterly brainwashed as to not see what’s right in front of your dumb face.

      I mean the Nazis got into power because Victoria Nuland acted as kingmaker for them… this is all available on the internet from reputable sources. It just hasn’t hit your brainwashed mass media sources because you watch literal propaganda and are such a useful idiot that rather than think critically you regurgitste it on link sharing forums. Sad.

        Yeah Nazis elected a Jewish man president. You truly do believe such bullshit.

        In the meantime the real Nazis were in an alliance with Russia until the Russians were betrayed.

          The USA was fine to let the Nazis take over Europe until Japan invaded Pearl Harbour. What’s your point?

            The US played the same role towards the UK as it is playing now towards Ukraine - providing aid - until Pearl Harbor.
