@the_kyiv_independent: "The Donbas issue is not just about Donbas. Between us, I believe this is the central question of this war — a war of survival and attrition," President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a briefing with journalists in Kyiv on Sept. 6. ⠀ Zelensky's comments came after he held talks with U.S. President Donald Trump's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, during their first visit to Kyiv — a day after the envoys held over three hours of talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. ⠀ The talks do not appear to have yielded a major breakthrough, with Zelensky telling reporters that he expects "the war will continue" into the winter months. ⠀ Zelensky and the envoys also mentioned future trilateral meetings — including U.S.-Ukraine-Europe talks and U.S.-Ukraine-Russia talks — without announcing the dates or locations of the expected discussions. ⠀ "Our troops are doing a great job and giving diplomacy a chance," Zelensky said. "Without a strong position on the battlefield, diplomacy would amount to little more than ultimatums." ⠀ Video: Office of the President of Ukraine.

little zelensky when will you understand that you lost not only Donbas and the war but all of Ukraine when you ended the peace negotiations! you together with little Boris Johnson and Biden were persuaded that you could win the war but instead you have lost the war on the front 30-35% to Russia and 100% of the natural resources of what is left of Ukraine to the USA plus all the billions in loans you have received from the EU!
