Oeksiy Reznikov – Trying months ahead

Russia still possesses substantial resources to wage war, yet at the same time attempts to gain a pause at the battlefield at any cost. 

These are the words of the Defense Minister of Ukraine, Oleksiy Reznikov, in his video address at the KSF founded by the Arseniy Yatsenyuk Foundation “Open Ukraine”.

“Trying months lie ahead. The enemy still possesses substantial resources, still signs accumulate that it needs a pause at all costs”, - he emphasized. 

“This is the best proof that our victory is soon to come, if we preserve our unity and resilience. If the free world remains resilient and united in its wish to stop the evil, so it happens,” – said the Minister. 

Reznikov also mentioned that some 9 months ago the Russian troops were only 20 km away from downtown Kyiv. 

“Nevertheless, because of Ukrainian people sustainability and resilience, bravery of our army and our partners’ support we persevered. And we have already liberated half of the temporarily occupied by the Russians territories”, - he underlined.
