Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Saturday (April 27) that he wanted to know the position of Ukrainian President-elect Volodymyr Zelenskiy on the conflict in Eastern Ukraine.

Putin told reporters in Beijing that he would have to discuss ways to end the conflict with Zelenskiy and that the Ukrainian people were tired of the conflict.

Putin also said Moscow was now considering extending its fast track passport scheme to the whole of Ukraine.

The conflict in Ukraine’s east has killed around 13,000 people since 2014 and poisoned relations between Ukraine and Russia.
