Zelensky stated that Ukraine will not withdraw from the Donbass.

“The United States proposed turning the Donbass into a free economic zone, which would mean the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the Donbass territory in exchange for Russia’s commitment not to enter the parts it has not yet taken. However, Kyiv’s position is now clear: We are staying in our positions.”
