Zelenskyi rejects the idea of surrendering the territories against peace
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi rejects the idea of Ukraine surrendering its territories for peace with Russia. Zelenskyi spoke about it in his daily speech Wednesday night.
– Many Western media have suggested that Ukraine should apparently accept a so-called difficult compromise and surrender its land against peace, Zelenskyi said.
He added that those proposing territorial transfers will not be able to see the ordinary people who actually live in the areas proposed for transfer.
According to Zelensky, “the oppressors who have been stuck for centuries are living in a time when attempts were being made to trade the interests of nations to appease the dictators’ desires.”
