Details: Zelenskyy said one result of what he described as Russian terror is the "discrediting of the diplomatic process" and the undermining of "opportunities for dialogue".

Quote: "Among the consequences of this terror is the discrediting of the diplomatic process: people lose faith in diplomacy, and Russian attacks constantly undermine even the limited opportunities for dialogue that existed before."

More details: Zelenskyy also stressed the need to make progress on documents that are still being prepared.

Quote: "Ukraine has never been and will never be a roadblock to peace, and it is now up to our partners to determine whether diplomacy moves forward."
