Against the background of problems with the continuation of aid to Ukraine from certain international partners, the head of state Volodymyr Zelenskyy explained how the events on the front will develop if our people are left without the support of the West at all.

Zelenskyy issued a warning to Kyiv's partners due to the decrease in aid to Ukraine

According to the head of state, without the help of international partners, our country will have to repel the Russian invaders on its own, as on the first day of a full-scale war.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that it would be complicated, but there was no other way but victory.

The Ukrainian leader made such a statement during a joint briefing with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Har Stere, answering questions from media representatives.

As you know, during the first days of the full-scale war, on February 24th, we were really on our own. It was difficult and very difficult. A tragic period for us and our people and you saw how it was for us. We were almost occupied. But we did not run away, did not leave and accepted this battle, Volodymyr Zelenskyy reminded international partners.

On the conviction of the head of state, Ukraine will be able to continue the fight against the Russian aggressor, even if it remains without help at all.

However, then we will lose a lot of our people.

It is possible to do as it was. I mean it's difficult, you lose a lot of people. And if you don't want to lose the lives of your people, children... You definitely need a real powerful defense shield. Starting with planes and ending with artillery. If the world, Europe unites around Ukraine, it is important for us. Of course, you can't win without help, but you can't lose either, because that's the only thing you have — your state."

Zelenskyy does not consider the option of ceding Ukrainian lands for the sake of peace

During a press conference in the USA, the president of Ukraine categorically rejected the idea of concessions in the territories of Ukraine for the sake of peace because he considered this proposal to be absolute madness.

This is absolute madness. We often mention God, and that is definitely not Christian. Our people, families and children live there. And all this is a part of Ukrainian society. We are talking about living people, they are mocked, raped, killed. And we know it very well. The question is not only in the land, the question is in living people, their destinies. The problem lies with these families, their children, Volodymyr Zelenskyy explained.
