Deputy head of the US State Department Wendy Sherman said that the country will support the decisions that Ukraine will take, including a possible neutral status. She reported this to Kommersant.

“From the very beginning of this crisis, we said that we would not do anything with Ukraine without Ukraine. We will not do anything with Europe without Europe. And without NATO. So the choice is up to the people of Ukraine. We support the decisions they made,” she said.

Earlier, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, during his next address to the people, said that he was ready to discuss the neutral status of Ukraine with Russia.

The Kremlin drew attention to the statements of the Ukrainian authorities about Kyiv's readiness for negotiations with Moscow on the neutral status of Ukraine, said the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov. At the same time, he added that at the moment he cannot say anything about the contacts of Russian President Vladimir Putin with his Ukrainian counterpart Vladimir Zelensky.
