Details: Lipavský noted that the only peace plan that is credible is President Zelenskyy's Victory Plan.
Quote: "Who else than us should know that the ‘about us without us’ peace negotiations is a road to hell. This is what I stressed at the EU Foreign Affairs Council in New York."
The only credible peace plan is that of president Zelensky.

Background:
- In an interview with The New York Times, Pavel reiterated that Ukraine should accept the possibility of some of its territories remaining under Russian control "temporarily" after the war.
- Ukraine's Foreign Ministry subsequently issued a statement rejecting the possibility of part of Ukrainian territory remaining temporarily under occupation and similar "half-hearted solutions".
- In response, Pavel said that hoping that the war would end with a clear success for Ukraine in a few weeks or months could be very dangerous for everyone. Therefore, he added, this issue should be considered in the light of what is realistically possible.
