President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the preservation of Ukraine's independence a victory for Ukraine. At the same time, the victory of justice for the whole world, he said, is the return of all Ukrainian lands.
He said this in an interview with the BBC.
Zelenskyy told the journalist that victory means the restoration of normal life for Ukrainians and an end to the killings. At the same time, his broader vision of victory was about the global threat that he believes comes from putin.
"I believe that stopping Putin today and preventing him from occupying Ukraine is a victory for the whole world. Because Putin will not stop at Ukraine," the President said.
To clarify his words, whether the victory means the return of all lands, Zelenskyy said:
"We'll do it. That is absolutely clear. It is only a matter of time. To do it today would mean losing a huge number of people - millions of people - because the [Russian] army is large, and we understand the cost of such steps. You would not have enough people, you would be losing them. And what is land without people? Honestly, nothing," he explained his answer.
The President also emphasized that Ukraine does not have enough weapons. And it also depends on Ukraine's partners.
"So at the moment it is impossible, but returning to the fair borders of 1991 is undoubtedly not only a victory, but also justice. The victory of Ukraine is the preservation of our independence, and the victory of justice for the whole world is the return of all our lands," Zelenskyy said.
As a reminder, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also believes that russian dictator vladimir putin has already started World War III.
In addition, according to Zelenskyy, Ukraine expects the deployment of foreign military contingents directly in the combat zone.
