Zelenskyy said that the Donbas is one of the key issues of the war and Ukraine’s outpost. He suggested that Russia may launch a new mobilization after the elections.
The issue of Donbas is one of the key issues of Russia’s war against Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this at a joint press conference in Kyiv with U.S. President’s special representatives Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, UNN reports.
The issue of Donbas is not only a question of Donbas. Between us, I believe this is a question of this war
According to him, this concerns a war "for survival" and "of attrition," as well as a territorial issue that is one of the Russian side’s objectives.
And, of course, it is a kind of stronghold for Ukraine in many respects. I said that we have strengthened our position on the battlefield, and in the east, where the enemy is active, where it has a larger number of personnel
The president suggested that mobilization could take place in Russia after the elections, which, in his assessment, would be connected with strengthening this direction.
