Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said Friday that his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin still wanted to occupy all of Ukraine, as efforts by Washington to secure a halt to the Russian invasion peter out.
“Putin’s goal is to occupy all of Ukraine. And no matter what he tells anyone, it is clear that he has set the war machine in motion to such an extent that he simply cannot stop it unless he is forced to fundamentally change his personal goals,” Zelensky said at a conference in Kyiv.
