Ukrainian President Zelensky reveals 'Plan B' in case of his death
(Baonghean.vn) - Kiev has drawn up a "plan B" in case one of Ukraine's leaders dies, including the president. This was announced by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in his speech at the Davos forum via video link.
“We were prepared and divided responsibilities – me, the Prime Minister and the head of the Parliament. We understood that if there were any losses, we would be ready for this process. We divided the cabinet into two parts, that is, two parallel parts, so that the country could be protected even from such outcomes,” President Zelensky said.

Zelensky clarified that Ukraine is a parliamentary-presidential republic. In addition, in his speech, the Ukrainian leader said that the only politician with whom he is ready to meet to discuss the issue of ending hostilities is Russian President Vladimir Putin. At the same time, he made it clear that holding any negotiations with Russia is becoming increasingly difficult.
Meanwhile, Dmitry Polyansky, Russia's First Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, called Zelensky's statement a purely PR move. According to him, the negotiation process between Kiev and Moscow has been frozen by Ukraine, while Russia is still waiting for a response to the proposals that were previously made./.
