Zelensky: Putin won't cease until he destroys Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky discussed the current situation in Ukraine on Wednesday in Vilnius after a meeting with Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda. He emphasized that Putin won't halt the invasion until he has destroyed Ukraine.

Zelensky stated, "He does not intend to stop. He desires to take over our entire country. And the uncertainty surrounding partners' financial and military aid to Ukraine and a swift response is empowering the Russian Federation." This was said at a press conference following his meeting with Lithuania's leader.

Zelensky cautioned that countries like Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Moldova could potentially be Russia's next targets. "This will only happen if we fail to counter it. I don't know if you're aware, but the Russians have also started discussing the independence of Finland and Uzbekistan. Hence, Putin won't cease until we collectively halt his actions." The Ukrainian President is firm in this belief.
