President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Russia is advancing proposals for extensive economic cooperation with the United States, describing the outreach as part of a broader effort by Moscow to reshape its relationship with Washington.

Speaking publicly, Zelensky indicated that the initiatives being discussed go beyond isolated transactions and amount to what he characterised as major, long-term economic arrangements.

According to Zelensky, the Russian approach is designed to appeal to American commercial and strategic interests at a moment when global alignments are under review and diplomatic channels are more active.

He suggested that Moscow is presenting these ideas as mutually beneficial, while positioning itself as open to pragmatic engagement with the United States despite ongoing geopolitical tensions.

Ukrainian officials have framed the developments as an attempt by Russia to influence U.S. policy through economic incentives rather than through security concessions.

Zelensky emphasised that Ukraine remains attentive to any discussions that could affect regional stability and said Kyiv continues to coordinate closely with its partners to ensure transparency and alignment of interests.

The remarks come amid renewed international focus on negotiations, sanctions policy and future security arrangements in Europe.

While no formal details of the proposed deals have been confirmed publicly, Zelensky’s comments underscore the extent to which economic diplomacy is increasingly being used alongside traditional political and military channels in efforts to recalibrate relations between major powers.
