Zelenskyy: Reduced sanctions and political pressure from partners on Russia reflected in partial growth of Russian military ambitions
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has heard a report from Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrsky and Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov and approved the list of upcoming operations for the Defense Forces.
"We are analyzing Russia’s updated war plans in detail. The Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine clearly understands exactly what the enemy is planning and what priorities have been defined for the Russian army by the political leadership of Russia. We will counter them. Unfortunately, the reduction of sanctions and political pressure from our partners on Russia has resulted in a partial growth of Russian military ambitions," Zelenskyy wrote on his Telegram channel on Tuesday.
He emphasized that Ukrainian long-range sanctions, the increased use of drones on the front line, and active operations by units will provide the necessary responses to Russia.
"Today I approved the list of our next operations," the president reported.
In addition, Syrsky and Hnatov reported on the most effective units at the front. Participants of the meeting also identified priority needs for front-line supplies that must be implemented immediately.
