Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin – the Russian mercenary leader whose plane crashed weeks after he led a mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership – shows what happens when people make deals with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

As Ukraine’s counteroffensive moves into a fourth month, with only modest gains to show so far, Zelensky told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria he rejected suggestions it was time to negotiate peace with the Kremlin.

“When you want to have a compromise or a dialogue with somebody, you cannot do it with a liar,” Volodymyr Zelensky said.

No, you shouldn't do it because it's stupid. If you had real arguments you would use them, but you don't, so instead you trot out this garbage. It's a sign of intellectual weakness and dishonesty.

    If it really was such a bad and stupid argument, why can't you address it? Spending paragraphs telling me an argument is bad without actually addressing it screens entitlement and incompetence to me.

    Where did I "[spend] paragraphs telling [you] an argument is bad"?

    Go ahead, I'll wait.

    Maybe you've mistaken me for someone else.

    I used a few short and simple sentences to explain why your position is crap. That's it.
