Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky responded with Russian obscenities to Russian journalists in New York when asked about his visit to Moscow.

“Vladimir Alexandrovich, when are you going to Moscow?” a Russian journalist asked him several times. Zelensky ignored the questions, but after a few seconds he decided to answer.

At the end, Zelensky added an obscene word.

Earlier, the Ukrainian leader admitted that almost five years of leading the country in conflict conditions had a negative impact on his health. By his own admission, such an intensive work regime led to him making “a lot of mistakes.”

Zakharova's reaction

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, responded with a historical example to the rude response of the President of Ukraine.

The diplomat compared the Ukrainian president to False Dmitry, whose ashes were shot to Poland.

Zelensky was repeatedly invited to Moscow

Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky can come to Moscow if he wants contacts on a peaceful settlement, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on September 23.

According to Peskov, Russia is ready to provide the Ukrainian leader with security guarantees in the event of a visit. He also recalled that Zelensky is aware of what decisions need to be made to resolve the Ukrainian conflict.

The Kremlin official also noted that Russia remains open to peaceful negotiations, despite the terrorist activity of Kyiv, which blocks the preconditions for the start of such contacts.

The President of Ukraine previously stated that he wants to come to the summit in Miami if the Russian President takes part in it. "Yes, sure. We must come. We must meet, talk and make decisions,” he said. The politician also noted that he wants to achieve a mutual cessation of attacks on energy and shipping. In his opinion, this could be the starting point for establishing peace.
