Details: The MP said he was "surprised to say the least" by the statements of the US president, since he knows that Zelenskyy is "very careful".

"He reads all the documents, especially such [a] crucial, important document as this peace proposal by President Trump, and I'm absolutely certain that he has acquainted himself with this plan [and] has read it," Merezhko said.

Trump earlier claimed that Russia "is fine with" the "peace plan", while Zelenskyy has not read it.

In turn, Rustem Umierov, Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council, who has been holding talks with the US side in Miami, has stated that President Zelenskyy will be briefed in full about the meetings.
