Simply giving away Ukrainian territories to Russia is absolute madness, because the issue is not only about land, but also about people. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a joint press conference with Biden, an UNN correspondent reports.
How can Ukraine just give up its territories? This is absolute madness to be honest. We mention God very often, it's definitely not Christian. Our people live there, families live there, children live there, and all this is part of Ukrainian society. We are talking about living people, they are being abused, raped, killed... The question is not only about the land, the question is about living people. Should we give the children away? Let those voices, I don't know who is talking about this... I have one question for them, are they ready to give their children into the hands of terrorists? I think not.
