Duda wants Putin to plead for negotiations with Ukraine himself.

This was stated by Andrzej Duda during the Ukrainian Breakfast in Davos, as reported by a correspondent from Novini.LIVE.

Duda Calls for Increased Pressure on Putin

Andrzej Duda noted that propaganda is operating powerfully in Russia and recommended that partners pay attention to the rhetoric of the "elite" representatives in the Kremlin and rethink the actual situation in the aggressor country. He explained that Russians are not interested in negotiations at the moment and are not prepared to stop.

"If you look at the Russian aggression against Ukraine, at the language spoken by the Russian elites in the Kremlin, if you watch Russian television, if you see the amount of language used in Russian propaganda, you will understand what the real problem is and what the real solution to this situation should be," Duda stated.

Despite this, the Polish president declared that even stricter measures against Russia need to be introduced so that Vladimir Putin "would start begging for negotiations himself."

"If we ask the question of how to encourage someone to sit at the table, my answer is: we must start such strong measures that will make Vladimir Putin ask for peace and peaceful negotiations. I do not want to beg Vladimir Putin to sit at the negotiating table. I want Vladimir Putin to beg us, Ukraine, and Ukraine's allies to sit at the table and discuss how to end this war and how to resolve all the problems we have around it," said Andrzej Duda.

Let us remind you that NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte explained at the Ukrainian Breakfast how a defeat for Ukraine in the war against Russia could be "costly" for the member states of the Alliance.

Additionally, Volodymyr Zelensky spoke in an interview with Bloomberg about when he would be ready to sit at the negotiating table with Vladimir Putin.
