Quote: "This is not a topic of our discussions – any ceasefire – with our allies, and we have not talked about this. I saw something in the media today – a lot of information suggesting that I came to talk about a ceasefire. No, no, that is not true."

Details: He emphasised that the next peace summit is expected to take place in November, although the exact date has not yet been set.

Quote: "The Victory Plan will be on the table at the Peace Summit. I don’t know the date, and I don’t think anyone knows it yet. But we will prepare everything we’ve decided on by the beginning of November. The plan will include all the details," Zelenskyy added.

Background: Earlier, during his visit to Croatia, Zelenskyy mentioned that he sees an opportunity in the coming months to lay the groundwork for ending the Russo-Ukrainian war by 2025 under terms acceptable to Ukraine.
