Zelensky: Russia Targets Odesa to Reach Moldova and Romania
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Russia intends to seize Odesa as part of a broader strategy aimed at reaching the borders of Moldova and Romania
The ceasefire proposal by Russian President Vladimir Putin is an ultimatum that cannot be trusted, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, according to a report by Reuters. Earlier on Friday, Putin declared that Russia would end the war in Ukraine if Kyiv agreed to abandon its NATO aspirations and surrender all four areas claimed by Moscow.
Speaking to Italian news channel SkyTG24 on the sidelines of the G7 summit, Zelensky expressed his belief that Putin would not halt his military offensive even if his ceasefire demands were met. "These are ultimate messages that are no different from the messages of the past," the Ukrainian leader remarked.
Zelensky drew a parallel between Putin and the expansionist ambitions of German Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler before World War II, asserting, "He won't stop." He emphasized that Putin's messages should not be trusted, likening them to Hitler's tactics. "This is the same thing that Hitler did. That is why we should not trust these messages of Putin," Zelensky added.
