MADRID, 16 May. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, has indicated late this Sunday that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will not stop until they recover Donbas, in eastern Ukraine, and the Russian troops cease their offensive in the country.
“We continue with very complicated and delicate negotiations to save our people of Mariúpol, from the Azovstal steel plant,” explained the Ukrainian president in a statement from the Presidency.
Thus, he has emphasized that “the occupiers still do not want to admit that they are in a dead end and that their so-called ‘special operation’ has already gone bankrupt.”
“All this brutality of the occupiers, which Ukraine is experiencing every day, will only lead to the fact that the surviving Russian soldiers will bring the evil back to Russia, they will return it because they will withdraw,” Zelensky said.
Likewise, the president has reiterated that he is working so that the countries reinforce the sanctions against Russia. “The priority is the oil embargo,” he stressed.
Zelensky will address students from 63 US and two Canadian universities, and is scheduled to address Stanford University in late May and Davos Forum participants.
“I am also preparing to communicate with Ukrainian students from leading universities in our country,” he stressed.
In this sense, he has stated that he intends to extend his speeches to the Parliaments of Africa and Asia.
As reported by the Ukrainian news agency Ukrinform, Zelensky this Sunday dismissed the commander of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Armed Forces, Yuri Halushkin, and appointed Major General Igor Tantsiura in his place.
