Source: Zelensky’s evening address on February 3
Direct speech: “We are waiting for the reaction of the United States of America to the Russian strikes.
Advertising:
It was America’s proposal: for the duration of diplomacy and such cold winter weather, to stop strikes on energy. There was a request from the President of the United States personally.
We see that Russia responded to this request with a ballistics record.
Less than four days have passed since the week Russia was asked for. This also speaks of everything else that Russia promises or can still promise. If they don’t keep their word now, what can we expect next?”
Details: Zelenskyi said that the Russians lied even before this war: “They are incorrigible in Moscow. And they want to take advantage of the cold, because they cannot conquer us, Ukraine, with their assaults. Russia’s bid for war must receive a response from the world.”
What preceded: On the night of February 3, Russia carried out a combined attack on Ukraine using various types of air-launched, ground-based and strike UAV missiles, the air defense destroyed 450 enemy targets out of 521 launched. 27 missiles and 31 strike UAVs were hit at 27 locations.
We will remind:
- US President Donald Trump said he personally asked Russian leader Vladimir Putin to stop airstrikes against Ukraine for a week due to severe frost.
- On Thursday, January 29, Russian pro-war publics began to spread information on social networks about the order banning attacks on Ukrainian energy, which came on January 28.
- Volodymyr Zelenskyi, in turn, confirmed that the Ukrainian negotiating team discussed the issue of ending strikes on energy infrastructure in Abu Dhabi.
