"Someday the distance between the Ukrainians will disappear and we will be together again as a country and as a family. The matterof time is only , "the president promised.
Zelensky has warned that Ukraine is in a position to strike back Russia's attacks and damage its strategic infrastructure if Moscow does not accept a ceasefire. "No one can forbid us these attacks because they are fair," he said.
