Ukrainian leader says Ukraine must 'work with China' to end conflict

 

 

he most threatened man in the world surrounded himself with hundreds of international journalists to review the first year of the invasion of Ukraine. With a security device equal to the risks it runs and a very careful iconography, the hoarse voice of Volodimir Zelenski, almost always in Ukrainian, only broke when a reporter asked him about the moment in which he was most frightened: " The scariest day of the war so far was Bucha and what he saw there after the liberation. I saw that the devil was here."

The meeting began with a thank you to all the reporters who have traveled to Ukraine at some point to tell about this heartbreaking conflict and observed a minute of silence for the deceased reporters.

Journalists from numerous countries asked about the effort their own governments were making. Zelensky summed up the answer for everyone: "No country can defend itself. Ukraine is not alone in defending the country and that is why this aggression does not go beyond Ukrainian territory," he said. In addition, he assured that the victory of Ukraine is "inevitable" if the West fulfills its promises, in reference to the commitments to send war material. It is curious, but Vladimir Putin, in his delirious speech on the 22nd, also assured that Russia "was invincible". Time will tell who is right.

Volodimir Zelenski, dressed in his military outfit that he began wearing just a year ago, commented, when asked by a Dutch reporter: "We want to form a court so that Russia pays for all the damage caused by its aggression," and addressed the regime directly. from Moscow: "Respect our right to live on our land, outside our territory, stop bombing us, stop killing civilians, stop bombing."

Regarding Spain, the Ukrainian president highlighted Pedro Sánchez's support for Ukraine's aspirations to enter the EU and underlined the importance of the two visits that Sánchez has made to him in Kiev for good relations between the two countries. "Pedro Sánchez greatly supports our candidacy to enter the EU and NATO," said the president, who recalled that Ukraine's ambitions in this regard have been received in other cases with "much skepticism." In addition, Zelenski congratulated himself on the good personal harmony with the head of the Spanish Government and thanked Spain, where 165,000 Ukrainians have settled, for being one of the countries that has welcomed the most refugees. "Sánchez was one of the first leaders to come to Ukraine and I think that Spanish society understands Ukraine better thanks to him," said Zelenski, who also thanked the weapons that Spain will send to the Ukrainian fronts.
