President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has strongly rejected the possibility of Ukraine's defeat on the battlefield. Ukraine was in a more difficult situation, but it survived then, and it will survive now.
Ukraine will definitely defeat Russia — Zelenskyy
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejects the possibility of the country losing the war with Russia, especially as aid from partners and allies decreases.
The President made this statement at the summary press conference in Kyiv on 19 December.
When asked by media representatives whether Ukraine could gradually come to the point of losing the war, Zelenskyy gave a negative answer.
No... We were in the most difficult situation, we were almost completely occupied — at least the central regions, the logistics of our state, roads, railways, food delivery, we were in a complete blockade, we broke free from, Zelenskyy said.
According to the president, the situation in Ukraine is "different now".
Should Ukraine expect help from the USA?
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is confident that US assistance will continue to flow and spoke about his trip to the United States.
Regarding financial assistance. We are working very hard on this. I am confident that the United States will not betray us and that what we have agreed on in the United States will be fully implemented, Zelenskyy said.
The President noted that he was confident that Ukraine would receive financial assistance from the United States. In addition, the US knows how this assistance will affect Ukraine's military capability and defence capability.
I think I have found an understanding with Biden and both chambers. We'll see, he stressed.
