Ukraine wishes only peace to Armenia and Azerbaijan, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky announced at the plenary session of the European political community in Yerevan.
“It is very important that Armenia stands with all Europeans today, by the way, it is the first time in 24 years that the president of Ukraine is visiting Armenia, this is really a significant fact, this shows the scale of our unity,” Zelensky emphasized.
He also referred to the Russian-Ukrainian war, stressing that the war continues to be as fierce as before.
“This summer will be the moment when Putin will have to decide what to do: expand the war or switch to diplomacy, we have to push him to diplomacy,” Zelensky said.
According to him, Russia will hold a parade with military equipment on May 9.
“If this happens, it will be the first time that they will not be able to show their military equipment, fear-mongering UAVs will buzz over Red Square. This shows that they are not strong, we should continue our sanctions against them,” the President of Ukraine announced in Yerevan.
He said that pressure on Russia should be continued.
To remind, the press secretary of the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov, announced that on May 9, the Victory Day parade on Red Square will be held as usual.
“Of course, the parade will take place. We will properly inform about the format of the parade,” he said.
