Zelensky: Russia wants to recoup its losses; we must stand firm
Whatever the pressure from Russia at the frontline, we must withstand it, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in a video address on Sunday, February 5.
"There are already many reports that the occupiers want to do something symbolic in February. Try to make up for their last year's losses. We see this increased pressure in different directions of the frontline, as well as pressure in the information field. It is very difficult in Donetsk region – fierce battles. But no matter how hard it is and no matter what the pressure, we must withstand it," he said.
"We must use every day and every week to strengthen our defense at the frontline, to strengthen our international positions, to increase pressure on Russia and give our people new opportunities to get through this difficult time. We have no other alternative than to defend ourselves and win," he said.
