President Zelensky declared Saturday that Russia keeps dragging out the war against Ukraine. He revealed what he believes Putin plans next as battles rage between their countries. Zelensky posted on X that Russian forces are planning to strike the Sumy region because Putin refuses to consider peace talks. The Ukrainian leader shared updates from his top commander about their defense lines across Donetsk and other combat areas.
Zelensky thanked Ukrainian military units for their bravery and effectiveness against enemy forces. He confirmed the military situation around Pokrovsk has stabilized. He also discussed Ukrainian operations in Russia's Kursk region, where their forces carry out assigned missions perfectly. The Ukrainian campaign in Kursk successfully pulled numerous Russian troops away from other battlefronts.
Ukrainian soldiers continue blocking both Russian and North Korean military groups in Kursk territory. Zelensky denied any claims about Ukrainian forces being surrounded there. He warned about Russian military buildups along Ukraine's eastern border, signaling plans to attack the Sumy region soon. Zelensky urged international allies to recognize Putin's true intentions and preparations.
The growing concentration of Russian forces proves Moscow rejects diplomatic solutions, Zelensky argued. He emphasized Russia clearly wants to extend the conflict longer. Zelensky offered complete battlefield information to partner nations about front lines, Kursk operations, and border situations. He announced major progress with Ukraine's missile program, including successful combat testing of the Neptune missile.
This new Ukrainian weapon can hit targets 1,000 kilometers away with precision. Zelensky praised Ukrainian scientists, manufacturers, and military personnel involved in this achievement. The Defense Minister briefed him about fresh support packages from international partners, especially artillery supplies. Zelensky expressed deep appreciation to countries assisting. His statement followed his Friday comment expressing hope about possibly ending the war after Ukraine accepted a US proposal for a 30-day temporary ceasefire.
