Ukrainian forces in Severodonetsk have “every chance” to repel the Russians and “be strong”, “our heroes hold their positions, tough street fighting continues in the city”. Thus Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, on the 103rd day of the war in Ukraine, paid tribute to the military who have been defending the stronghold in the Luhansk region for days, where Russian soldiers have the numerical superiority.
In his usual speech of the night, the Ukrainian president said: “Lysychansk, Slovyansk, Bakhmut, Sviatohirya, Avdiivka, Kurakhove and other Russian raid targets are the hottest points of confrontation today. The Russian military is trying to use additional forces in direction of the Donbass, but the Ukrainian Donbass resists and resists firmly “.
Then Zelensky stated that the peace talks with Russia are “zero level” and that in the meantime “a very threatening situation” has developed in the Zaporizhzhia region.
Yesterday Zelensky revealed that neither he nor Foreign Minister Kuleba were invited to the June 8 meeting in Ankara, Turkey, which will deal with the export of Ukrainian wheat across the Black Sea.
“I was not invited and to date neither has been the Foreign Minister. For us it is important to export grain that ships are escorted by the fleet of one country or another. We have talked about it both with Turkey and in the other. with Great Britain – he explained – Turkey is trying to identify the way in which to provide us with guarantees. I believe that with this intent it will meet with Russia: to obtain guarantees from Moscow on the safety of their ships “.
