On the 14th local time, Ukrainian President Zelensky clearly stated that Ukraine and Russia have not established a direct dialogue channel. The United States plays a special "relay role" in the bilateral dialogue between Ukraine and the United States, and to a certain extent "represents" Russia in conveying relevant signals, demands, negotiation steps and core intentions to Ukraine. He emphasized that "Ukraine and the United States are discussing not only bilateral relations and security guarantees, but also our response to Russia's position." He also reiterated that the key to resolving the conflict lies in the United States and its partners exerting real pressure on Russia and pushing Russia to make substantial compromises.
