I am probably not the first, in which case I add my name to those who came before me, who is dubious of President Zelensky meeting with a Russian delegation on the Ukraine-Belarus border to “negotiate" when Russia has stated that its war on Ukraine will continue with the talks, when there is this enormous convoy of Russian reinforcements Kyiv-bound, when Putin has recently and repeatedly referred to Zelensky and his ministers as "drug-addicts and neo-Nazis," and when the U.S. State Department has concluded that the bilateral negotiations before the war were a "sham" by Russia. All told, I would think it more likely that these negotiations are a ruse to arrest Zelensky.
