'Come To Kyiv': Zelensky TORCHES Putin’s Moscow Invite, Won’t Visit Russia Amid Attacks On Ukraine

Speaking to ABC News, Zelensky said he could not travel while Ukraine remained under relentless missile and drone attacks. Putin claimed security would be guaranteed, but Zelensky insisted discussions must happen in Kyiv. While Trump has attempted to broker talks between both leaders, and Putin signaled openness to direct dialogue, the Kremlin maintains the timing is “not ready.” Hopes for peace remain distant amid ongoing war. #ZelenskyVsPutin #UkraineRussiaWar #KyivNotMoscow #ZelenskyRejectsPutin #UkraineConflict #RussiaUkraineTensions #PeaceTalksStalemate #ZelenskyMessage #PutinInvite #UkraineWarUpdate #RussiaUkraineNews #BreakingNews #UkraineFrontlines #ZelenskySpeech #PutinVsZelensky #TrumpPeacePlan #UkraineMissileAttacks #DroneWarUkraine #UkraineCrisis #UkrainePeaceTalks #MoscowInvitation #UkraineWarBreaking #RussiaUkrainePeace #KyivUnderFire #ZelenskyRefuses #PutinSecurityGuarantee #UkraineWar2025 #UkraineResistance #NoTalksInMoscow #KyivStrong Also Read Modi–Putin Bond On Display With Shared Car Ride After SCO Summit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/modi-putin-bond-on-display-with-shared-car-ride-after-sco-summit-7847359.html?ref=DMDesc Russia, China Oppose 'Discriminatory Sanctions' Against BRICS Countries: Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-china-oppose-discriminatory-sanctions-against-brics-countries-putin-7846217.html?ref=DMDesc Melania Trump Urges Vladimir Putin to Consider Children in Ukraine Conflict :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/melania-trump-letter-to-putin-children-peace-ukraine-011-7832049.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~

Zelensky Warns Putin from Denmark: Ukraine Secures ‘Solid Basis’ for Security Guarantees in Any Deal

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has issued a direct warning to Vladimir Putin, declaring that Ukraine now has a “solid basis” for NATO-style Article 5 security guarantees in case of a ceasefire. Speaking in Denmark alongside Nordic-Baltic leaders, Zelensky said Ukraine’s future security must rest on ironclad commitments, not empty promises. With bilateral agreements already in place — including one with Denmark — Kyiv is making it clear: any ceasefire deal must come with NATO-level protection. Will this escalate tensions with Moscow, and how will Putin respond to Ukraine’s defiance? #Zelensky #Putin #UkraineWar #NATO #Ceasefire #SecurityGuarantees #NordicBaltic #UkraineRussiaWar #Geopolitics #Article5 ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.346~GR.122~

A secret Western plan to secure post-war Ukraine has been revealed, with France, the UK, and top U.S. generals reportedly shaping a strategy to deploy over 10,000 foreign troops after a peace deal with Russia.
