Podolyak recorded a video message before the start of negotiations

Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the Presidential Office, said that during talks with Russian representatives on Monday, the Ukrainian delegation will try to prove that any issues cannot be resolved by force and asked citizens not to pay much attention to information about the allegedly discussed appointment of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych to positions of responsibility.

"We are about to start a dialogue with representatives of a country that still believes that in the 21st century it is possible to beat out some results by force for a long time. We will try to prove that this is not true - this is the first thing. And the second - I ask you not to pay attention to all these fakes with some names of Yanukovich, Boyko, I do not know who else they want to appoint special representatives for Ukraine, like Muraev or Kiva," Podolyak said in his video message on Twitter.

"Everything will be the way Ukraine needs and the way our people need, who have already proved that the country is winning," the advisor to the Office of the President added.
