Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, says “millions will be killed” in a joint press conference with European and Canadian leaders.

“31,000 Ukrainian troops have been killed in this war. Not 300,000- not 150,000 … Nevertheless, this is a big loss for us,” he says in Kyiv on Sunday.

According to his report, Russia will be preparing a counter-offensive operation around the end of May. In turn, Ukraine will be preparing themselves for the attack by preparing reserves.

Furthermore, he emphasizes the importance of Unity during this time, “Now is the most difficult moment for our unity, and if we all fall apart, from the outside and God forbid inside, then this will be the weakest moment. It hasn’t happened yet.

He reiterates further, “The third year is a turning point. A year of elections, defocusing, everything at once, challenges from outside, from within … I believe the format of how the war ends will depend on this year.
