Ukraine just dropped the mic on the idea of a public vote about handing over land to Russia. 🎤🚫 Andriy Yermak, head of the Ukrainian President's Office, said Kyiv has zero plans to amend its constitution for any territorial concessions.
When asked if a referendum to recognize Russian control over parts of Ukraine was on the table, Yermak was clear: “No, we are not doing this, and at the moment we do not intend to cede any part of our land.”
This echoes President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's take that any talk of borders will happen face-to-face with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Ukraine wants to address the conflict’s realities but won’t be pushed into ultimatums. 💪🌍
In a nutshell, Ukraine is keeping its cards close and is ready to talk, but on its own terms. Stay tuned as tensions and talks evolve! 🔄
