Zelenskiy says Russia is playing for time to continue war

KYIV, May 20 (Reuters) - President Volodymyr Zelenskiy accused Russia on Tuesday of playing for time to be able to continue the war in Ukraine and its occupation of Ukrainian territory.

Zelenskiy said Ukraine had no doubt the war must end at the negotiating table but there must be clear and realistic proposals on the table, and called for more international sanctions pressure on Russia.

He said he had spoken to Finnish President Alexander Stubb and that he would speak to more allies later on Tuesday.
