Details: As the president said, it is quite possible that Russia will open a second front against another European country before the end of the war in Ukraine.

Direct speech: “I think so. He can do it. We should forget about the general European skepticism that Putin first wants to occupy Ukraine and then he can go somewhere else. He can do both at the same time.”
Details: Zelenskyi attributed the rise in criminal activity in Europe, including decoy drone incursions into Poland and the later appearance of drones over airports in other European capitals, to Russia’s failure to make significant progress on the Ukraine front.
“Putin is in a hopeless situation from the point of view of real success. For him, it’s more of a stalemate. That’s why these failures may force him to look for other territories,” the president said.
He described Russia as a large and aggressive country that needed a large external adversary to unite different ethnic groups and regions. Putin considers the US and the West to be enemies, he said.
“Friendship with Russia is not a solution for America. From the point of view of values, Ukraine is much closer to the US than Russia,” he added.
