"Everything will not end as quickly as we would like" - Zelenskyy about the war in Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the Ukrainian people continue to fight against Russia, but everything will not end as quickly as we would like.

He said this, in particular, during a meeting with the CEO of Fox Corporation, Lachlan Murdoch, and journalists.

"People somehow perceive this as if it were a movie, expecting that there won't be long pauses in events, that the picture before their eyes will always change, there will be some surprises every day. But for us, for our soldiers, this is not a movie. These are our lives. This is daily hard work. And it won't end as quickly as we would like, but we don't have the right to give up, and we won't do that," he said.

The President also talked about the situation on the battlefield, the high motivation and determination of the Ukrainian people and their belief in victory.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of maintaining the world's attention to our efforts in the fight for freedom and our state.
