Two years of full-scale war. Two years of pain, suffering and losses. What's next?
![Losses of the Armed Forces, counteroffensive, weapons production, Polish provocations, negotiations with Putin and the end of the war: sensational statements of the President of Ukraine (VIDEO)](https://cdn2.goloskarpat.info/images/doc/1/4/149253619465dca64b85de5_image.png)
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy gave a big press conference, where for the first time he declassified information about Ukrainian losses and told what international partners will finally hand over, which we have been waiting for so long.
About a personal meeting with Putin, negotiations on Ukraine's terms, as well as who leaked Ukraine's previous counteroffensive and when there will be a new one. About the most acute thing now — what will happen to mobilization and demobilization and when to expect a turning point at the front. All this is in an exclusive story for TSN.ua journalist Viktoria Hnatiuk.
Zelenskyy's press conference after two years of full-scale war
10 years of war, two years of full-scale invasion: there are many questions, sometimes very few answers. Zelensky gathered journalists for a big press conference, which lasted more than two hours, so we have a lot of interesting news.
The question of when the war will end , and most importantly under what conditions, has been open for a long time and not even since 2022. And soon the second peace summit will take place, even Russia will probably be invited there, but we all know that Putin still does not reduce his appetite to swallow all Ukraine, even after "Kyiv in three days" turned into the expulsion of Russian troops not only from the capital, but also the liberation of the occupied territories.
But is there a just peace on Ukraine's terms now and what needs to be done so that Putin simply does not have a chance to dictate his rules, Volodymyr Zelenskyy explained.
Negotiations with Putin: how realistic?
Later, the American journalist noticed that Ukraine lacked the weapons to win and asked if it was time to sit down to negotiate personally with Putin. However, Zelensky made it clear that this is impossible, and the dictator has only one option for ending this war and how he can be pushed to do so.
Meeting behind closed doors with the dictator
Moreover, the president admitted what he talked about with Putin behind closed doors during the last face-to-face meeting in Paris in 2019.
Procrastination = Loss
But Ukraine's victory depends not only on our resilience, but also on how much longer aid will be slowed down. Moreover, Joe Biden has already admitted that the lack of weapons entailed the loss of Avdiivka, and this, among other things, is the fault of the United States. So won't congressional delay cost Ukraine the loss of territory?
Will there be a long-range weapon?
However, there is also good news, Volodymyr Zelenskyy hinted at a positive decision to provide Ukraine with long-range ATACMS with a range of 300 km, with the help of which it will be possible to achieve greater success.
Provocations from the Poles
But while some are trying to help, others are staging provocations at the border. As you have already understood, we are talking about Poland. Farmers are still protesting at the border, pouring out Ukrainian grain, while the authorities refused Zelensky's proposal to meet right at the epicenter of the conflict at the border. Why this happened and why such protests are dangerous for the Poles themselves — see below.
A turning point in the war
In addition, Zelenskyy announced the visit of French President Emmanuel Macron and noted that Paris plans to provide Ukraine with several dozen artillery systems, which are also needed here and now at the front. At the same time, the situation on the contact line is difficult, but the President noted that the third year of the war in Ukraine is a turning point. This is a year of elections, defocusing, all at once, challenges from the outside, from the inside. Zelenskyy admitted that it will be even more difficult for us in March-April, Russia is again preparing a counteroffensive, which will begin in the first months of summer, but it can also be stopped.
Counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
But the Armed Forces of Ukraine are also preparing for a counteroffensive. The last counteroffensive did not give all the expected results, but most importantly, the Russians were expelled from the Kharkiv region, Kherson and recaptured the bridgehead on the left bank of the Kherson region. Long-suffering Krynky — Russia from time to time declares that it has occupied the village, but this does not go beyond fairy tales. The Ukrainian military holds the bridgehead despite daily assaults by the Russians. But it seems that last time there were mistakes, moreover, Zelensky said that someone "leaked" the counteroffensive plan and the Kremlin knew everything in detail, now these mistakes have been taken into account.
For the first time about losses
So now there will be several plans for a counteroffensive so that the enemy does not know Ukraine's next step. The president was also stunned by the fact that for the first time he named a specific figure of losses of the Ukrainian military, and in one fell swoop dispelled Russia's rumors.
Draft law on mobilization
Zelenskyy did not name how many wounded there were so that the Russians could not calculate how many soldiers are currently at the front. At the same time, now the new commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, is conducting a full audit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, this is one of the points of preparation for the counteroffensive, Zelensky says. As acute as the issue of reconquest of Ukrainian territories is the issue of mobilization and demobilization for those who have been at war for two years. Currently, the Verkhovna Rada has a draft law on mobilization, the saga around which has been dragging on since the end of 2023. More than 4000 amendments have already been made to the new, revised version, and it is increasingly unclear when the law will be adopted.
