Ukraine sees nothing new in Donald Trump's plans to meet with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

This was stated by Foreign Ministry spokesman Heorhiy Tykhyi at a briefing, Censor.NET reports with reference to Ukrinform.

"Donald Trump has previously spoken about plans for such a meeting (with Putin - ed.), so we see nothing new in this," he said.

Tychy noted that the Ukrainian position is very simple: we all want to end the war fairly and we see that President-elect Trump is also determined to end the war.

The main thing now, the spokesman said, is that Ukraine is waiting for a meeting between Trump and Zelenskyy.

"Because the main thing for us is to work together with America. ... We are preparing for Ukrainian-American contacts at the highest and highest level immediately after the inauguration," he concluded.

Earlier, Reuters reported that US President-elect Donald Trump said that a meeting is planned between him and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
