Zelensky’s direct speech: “As for” penetration “…
I, as the president of Ukraine, when I want to go somewhere, I come officially, and I don’t go anywhere.”
Updated: Later, Zelensky added that Ukraine does not attack Russian territory – it has neither the time, nor extra funds, nor the need for this. Ukraine is engaged in the de-occupation of its own territories, the President stressed.
