Volodymyr Zelensky mentioned Poland
Later in the speech, the Ukrainian politician noted that Russia has never ended wars voluntarily. — Only under duress, which she calls a “gesture of good will.” It's always been like that. The entire history of Russia is wars – Poland, Türkiye, Finland, Syria, Georgia, Abkhazia, Ossetia, Chechnya — the list is endless, because almost the entire territory of Russia was created by wars, Zelensky said.
As the Ukrainian politician added, there is a chance that Russia's invasion will end in 2026, but the world must meet several conditions: the “shadow fleet” must be stopped, Russian factories must stop production, and Tomahawk cruise missiles should be handed over to Ukraine.
— Today we have the right to say clearly: Ukraine is the only shield that separates the comfortable life of Europe from the “Russian Mir”. Because if, God forbid, Ukraine falls, the next questions will be: “Why support Poland?”“Who will defend the Baltic states?”, “What to do without Ukraine in NATO?”. Europe needs Ukraine, Zelensky added.
