Volodymyr Zelenskyy: “a clear escalation of terror by Russia”

I believe that in a war like this, elections as such are a huge risk. Elections right now are a tsunami for the country that will split Ukraine.

And then, after the so-called elections, he plans an additional rapid mobilization of several hundred thousand Russians by the end of the year, plus just as many more next year.

At least $8 billion is needed for 'a normal start' to 2027, plus about $20 billion more for military salaries.

And it is equally important that our partners also complement our just kinetic responses with their own actions to put pressure on Russia and support Ukraine.
