President Zelensky Admits That Ukraine’s Counteroffensive Must Produce Results Before NATO Summit

Ukraine President Zelensky  

The New Voice of Ukraine: Ukraine’s costly counteroffensive must produce results before NATO summit – Zelenskyy 

Ukraine's partners expect rapid success in the counteroffensive before the July NATO summit in Vilnius, but every meter of liberated territory comes at a high cost, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an interview with Spanish media, as reported by broadcaster RTVE on June 30. 

"We must show results before the (NATO) summit (on July 11-12), but every meter comes at a cost of lives," said Zelenskyy. 

The president revealed that the plans for Ukraine's counteroffensive have been slowed down in recent months due to heavy rains. He called on partners to continue supporting Ukraine with weapons. 

Zelenskyy noted that during the autumn 2022 counteroffensive, "with respect to our allies," the supply of artillery was “too late.”

Every photo of Zelensky is getting worse and worse, looking like he is hung over, or coked up. How was such a lowlife elected?
