According to Zelenskyy, Ukraine’s anti-aircraft defenses have managed to almost completely repel one of the largest Russian drone strikes since the beginning of the war. The Ukrainian President finds clear words in the direction of the Kremlin.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has predicted the fall of the Russian leadership after its defeat in its war of aggression.
“Kiev and all our cities, all of our Ukraine will put an end to the history of Moscow despotism, which has enslaved many different peoples for a very long time,” he said in his daily video address. The head of state was not seen in a screened-off room, as is usual, but in the evening light on the street in front of the president’s office in Kiev.
Zelensky said Ukraine’s anti-aircraft defenses had managed to almost completely repel one of the largest Russian drone strikes since the beginning of the war. In this way, Russia tried to spoil the city’s birthday party for the people of Kiev. But Kiev has already survived a wide variety of atrocities in its history and will also survive the attacks of the Russians and will not allow them to conquer, says the 45-year-old. According to him, weapons like the Shahed drones cannot save Russia’s rulers. Because it despises life and culture, Russia can only lose the war, he predicted.
Russia began its war of aggression against Ukraine more than 15 months ago. After some initial successes, the Russian army suffered several painful defeats and withdrew from the Kharkov region and parts of the Cherson region. Despite this, Moscow still controls around a fifth of Ukraine’s territory, including Crimea, which was annexed in 2014.
