The question was asked by Turkish media, and in his answer Zelensky mentioned Turkish President Recep Erdogan. According to him, he has always supported Ukraine and its territorial integrity, at the same time he has good relations with the illegitimate President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.
“It is advisable that President Erdogan ask this question to Putin – why is he constantly attacking the corridor, namely the food corridor, for which we all fought so hard. These are humanitarian supplies. Why is he constantly attacking all the logistics of Odessa? The answer is clear. To sow chaos, to put moral pressure in the winter so that there is no food, so that there are problems with medicines. It is absolutely clear why this is happening today. Of course, we will fight for the logistics of each of our regions,” Zelensky noted.
Context
In early December, the illegitimate Russian President Vladimir Putin threatened to “expand the range” of Russian strikes against “port facilities and shipsthat enter Ukrainian ports.” “The most radical way,” he said, is to “cut off Ukraine from the sea.”
One of the most massive attacks on Odessa and the region of the Russian Federation was carried out on the night of December 13. A significant part of the region, including Odessa, was left without light, water and heat for a week. In the region, the city of Artsyz received the greatest destruction.
In just one day on December 19, the Russian occupiers carried out more than 10 attacks on the bridge in the Mayak area. Because of this, traffic on the Odessa-Reni highway has been temporarily stopped, making it impossible to travel to checkpoints and settlements in the western part of the Odessa region. According to military experts, with such attacks the Russian Federation wants to cut off from transport communications the entire western part of the Odessa region, which is “an outlet to logistics on the Danube.” Before this, the Russian Federation attacked the bridge in Zatoka.
