Quote: "We must prevent the conflict from freezing. We must not allow Russia to prepare for a powerful counteroffensive in a year, two years, three years, or five years. Not to let them do that... Not to let Russia become powerful again."

Details: According to the Ukrainian President, it is necessary to end the war before this happens.

He noted that if the war is frozen, sanctions will eventually begin to weaken over time, and new rhetoric will emerge: "What is the purpose of a new sanctions package if there are no hostilities?"

Zelenskyy warned that Russia is preparing for revenge, and Ukraine plans to prevent this. It is necessary to consolidate the societies of different states so that Ukraine's plans coincide with the goals and capabilities of its partners.

Quote: "Our goals are Ukrainian, but our plans must coincide with the capabilities of our partners."
