Volodymyr Zelenskyy

The shelling and storming of Azovstal is not stopping, but civilians still need to be taken out. Women many children remain there.

That one cannot relax yet, one cannot think that the war is over, we still need to fight.

One cannot relax yet, one cannot think that the war is over.

The 58th day of our defense is coming to an end. It ends on Good Friday, one of the most sorrowful days of the year for Christians, the day when death seems to have won, but we hope for a resurrection. We believe in the victory of life…

President Zelenskyy said today that Russia has not engaged in war in Mariupol, that it was more like a, quote, 'terrorist operation.'

They can send millions, but we could still lose our state. That’s why one has to strike a balance. Whether you want to or not, you are not the only hero. The people are the heroes and we must protect their lives maximally.

We don't know when we can unblock Mariupol, and I say this openly that all the boys in Mariupol want our victory. They want a free city. None of them are going to surrender to the enemy.

I would also like to thank you for your great support in the area of defense. We are ready to continue to cooperate for the next steps. Specifically, we are almost ready to buy more javelins from the United States for defensive purposes.

In this war, the Russian army will forever inscribe itself in world history as perhaps the most barbaric and inhuman army in the world. Purposefully killing civilians, destroying residential neighborhoods, civilian infrastructure and using…

Forever, the Russian Army will be written in history as the most barbaric and inhumane army in the world. The targeted killing of civilians and destruction of residential buildings with all kinds of weapons, including those that are…

Right now, we can already state that the Russian military began the fight for Donbas for which they were preparing for a long time.

When some leaders ask me what weapons I need, I need a moment to calm myself because I already told them the week before. It`s Groundhog Day. I feel like Bill Murray.

The optimism that many Americans and Europeans and even some Ukrainians are currently expressing about the war is unjustified. If the Russians are not expelled from Ukraine`s eastern provinces, they can return to the center of Ukraine and…

We will be fighting.

Even Zelenskyy said, if those soldiers in Mariupol are killed, a deal is off the table.

Russian forces have started the battle for Donbas, to which they've been preparing for a long time and the considerable amount of the Russian forces are concentrating and focused on that offensive and no matter how many Russian servicemen…

If those soldiers in Mariupol are killed, a deal is off the table.

We have a very small window of opportunity.

And not only me, I think with all of the world, all of the countries have to be worried. They can, for them, life of people is nothing, that is why.

I cannot understand how a Christian country, the Russian federation, will be killing people on these very days.

Humor, he explained, reveals deeper truths.

I like new questions. It is not interesting to answer the questions you already heard.

Without a sense of humor, as surgeons say, they would not be able to perform surgeries to save lives and to lose people as well.

They just live in a different situation. As long as they have not lost their parents and children, they do not feel the way we feel.

Based on how Vladimir Putin behaves, in terms his complete and utter disregard for human life, it is something that cannot be ruled out.
