Russia can only take Kyiv if it 'razes it to the ground', President Volodymyr Zelensky says

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said Russia can only take Kyiv if it "razes it to the ground" - as he suggested future peace talks could take place in Jerusalem, Sky News reports.

Mr Zelenskyy also said he doesn't see "common consensus" for Ukraine to be accepted into NATO, before adding that the alliance has lacked "bravery" in its response to the invasion.

In his latest speech, Mr Zelensky said Russian and Ukrainian negotiating teams have started discussing concrete topics rather than exchanging ultimatums during peace talks.

However, he said the West has so far not been involved enough in the negotiations.
