We must remember that russia is not fighting now to stay in our Mariupol or Crimea, but to be able to come to Tartu or Gdansk if the kremlin wants it, Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a statement to the participants of the meeting of the European Council.

“We must remember that russia is not fighting now to stay in our Mariupol or Crimea, but to be able to come to Tartu or Gdansk if the kremlin wants it.
