Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s communications adviser, Dmytro Lytvyn, has rejected allegations that any ceasefire proposals were discussed during a recent conversation with US President Donald Trump. The claims, which first appeared in Polish media outlet Onet, reportedly suggested that the US had proposed such terms to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Lytv, a close confidant of Zelenskyy, emphasized during a press conference that no such discussions took place, and that the statements attributed to Trump were entirely fabricated.
During the call, which took place on [insert date], Zelenskyy and Trump reportedly discussed a range of topics, including the situation in Ukraine and broader geopolitical concerns. However, Lytvyn stated that no mention of ceasefire proposals was made, and that the US had not conveyed any new terms to Putin. The adviser’s comments come amid growing international scrutiny over the accuracy of media reports regarding diplomatic efforts in the region.
Analysts suggest that the denial is part of a broader effort to manage public perception, as the conflict in Ukraine continues to draw significant global attention. The potential for a ceasefire remains a critical topic of discussion among international leaders, with various parties expressing both hope and skepticism about the possibility of a diplomatic resolution.
