On October 19, President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed the scale of the terror Russia has been waging against peaceful Ukrainian cities and forces over the past week. The latest developments suggest that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is determined to continue the war.
Points of attention
- Zelenskyy highlights the importance of allies intervening before it's too late, as the ongoing war is a result of Moscow's reluctance to seek a peaceful resolution.
- The international community must not turn a blind eye to the ongoing conflict, as the situation requires immediate action to halt Russia's aggressive acts against Ukraine.
Russia is constantly intensifying terror against Ukraine
The Head of State once again reminded the world that Ukraine has never sought war.
Kyiv not only immediately agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, but also always sought ways to achieve peace.
It was Ukraine that was repeatedly proposed to stop the strikes in the sky, on the ground, and at sea.
However, this has never happened, as the Kremlin constantly slows down this process.
Against this background, Zelensky reminded: the war continues only because Moscow does not want to end it.
Almost daily, Russian terrorists carry out hundreds of attacks on our critical and civilian infrastructure. This week alone, Russia has used over 3,270 strike drones, 1,370 guided bombs, and nearly 50 missiles of various types against Ukraine.
