“Today, Russia produces more defence equipment than it consumes on the front lines. It is clearly preparing for something else.
Collectively, Europeans are much stronger than Russia. That is why I think we must not be pessimistic.” — @cemafr.bsky.social

Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with The Guardian:
"Putin never asked for anything. He just invaded our territory. Then why should people on whose continent there is a war today ask him? Maybe we should just stop those infantile conversations?"
