Volodymyr Zelenskyy: “Putin is lying about the real situation on the battlefield.”

He is playing with words… It simply looks like a parody of a genuine desire to end the war. He does not want to end the war. I am convinced that this is also why Donbas is not enough for him.

We want to end this war as quick as possible. We don’t see now signals from the Russian side that they are ready for this, to end this war. That’s why we have to prepare for the winter.

Putin does not want peace talks at the moment, in any form.

The sanctions could have helped enormously.
