“We are considering holding a referendum so that not only the parliamentarians, and the president, but the people of Ukraine make this decision,” said the head of the presidential administration of Ukraine, Andrei Bogdan.
According to the official, the question of reaching a peace agreement with Russia and resolving the conflict in Donbass will be put to a referendum.
To achieve this task, President Zelensky's administration plans to pass a law on referendums. When taking the oath of office, Mr. Zelensky said he was ready for dialogue to resolve the situation in Donbass.
