On September 10, in an exclusive interview with the British weekly The Economist, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy indicated that the country would never compromise with Russian President Vladimir Putin and that the war will continue for as long as Russia remains on Ukrainian territory.
“A negotiated deal would not be permanent. The Russian president has a habit of creating frozen conflicts on Russia’s borders (in Georgia, for example), not as ends in themselves but because his goal is to restore the Soviet Union. The mistake is not diplomacy. The mistake is diplomacy with Putin. He negotiates only with himself,” the Ukrainian President was quoted as saying.
He added that cutting help to Ukraine would only prolong the conflict and it would put the West in danger in its own backyard. He also added that it is impossible to foresee how millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries will respond if their country is abandoned.
“Ukrainians have generally behaved well and are very grateful to those who sheltered them. They will not forget that generosity. But it would not be a good story for Europe if it were to drive these people into a corner,” Zelenskyy stated.
The president of Ukraine has consistently outperformed Western politicians in his ability to win over the Western public. He continues to feel that “the greatest method to persuade governments is to push them through the media.”
“People read, people discuss, people make up their minds and people push. It was public opinion that drove politicians to increase arms supplies to Ukraine in the early days of the war. Scaling down that help may anger not just Ukrainians but also Western voters. They will start asking what the whole effort was for. People will not forgive if they lose Ukraine,” Zelenskyy was quoted as saying.
Recently, As Russian missiles killed a police officer in the Ukrainian president’s hometown, Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged foreign leaders to ‘resume’ their sanctions drive against Moscow. He said allies had relaxed sanctions against Moscow and urged for more pressure on the Kremlin’s finances.
“Currently, we see a prolonged sanctions pause from our partners, and Russia’s overly active attempts to circumvent the sanctions. This world’s sanctions offensive must resume,” Zelenskyy said.
You’re just noticing?
I think you misunderstand/bad assumption. Don’t read in what isn’t there.
Somebody should get a flyswatter and a pair of tongs. That way he’ll never be able to play the piano again with his little pecker.
How would Trump reply if Zelensky said this to him?
He is a little money hungry little turd appropiately the son of Biden.
“The bombing of Kiev begins in five minutes.”
“Do as we say and nobody gets hurt!”
You can bet the farm he’s blackmailing plenty of congressmen and senators, too. And threatening to reveal more about the biolabs. And money laundering. And...and...
Let them. Then the Law can protect them too. As it does ANTIFA and BLM.
He tries that, and the Derp State will make him disappear. I have to imagine he’s wearing out his welcome with them. Then miraculously the media will “confirm” he was as dirty as we said he was all along (bribes, mansions, looked away at the child sex trafficking, et al). Then on to the next puppet.
I wish this A-hole were subjected to a curious or hostile Enemedia...
At least the citizens of various countries would understand the real reason behind our proxy war...
Just STFU, piano balls
My numerous, first hand experiences with them confirms what you've said.
I think that 80 years of soul-searing, traumatic communism dulled out their consciences. From my experiences with them everything's for sale - and I mean everything.
Leftism destroys everything it touches, including people.
You forgot the microscope. . .
No kidding.....and a “rifle behind every blade of grass”....
That was then. This is now. They would be a doper smoking a medical marijuana joint behind every blade of grass now.
“Ukraine President Zelenskyy threatens Western countries: If you stop weapons supply, millions of Ukrainians living in your countries may go violent”
The countries do have an option - DEPORT the men in those countries back to Ukraine. After all, Zelensky has said that he needs them for the grinder.

On that one, I can’t disagree.

On this one, I would refer Mr Zelensky to the fate of Diem during the Vietnam War. It could prove instructive to him
Just another brand of dirty slav.
