On #TheUpdate this Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says that the country could declare neutrality and offer security guarantees to Russia to secure "peace without delay" in talks expected to resume tomorrow. Zelenskyy says that only a face-to-face meeting with Putin could end the war.

One welder says that "our victory depends on us." 🇺🇦🇷🇺👨🏽‍🏭🚚
