President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that if all Ukrainians remain united, if partners keep all their promises, including regarding the timing of arms deliveries, Ukrainians will defeat Russia this year.
"If everyone does their homework, if we all fulfill our tasks, we will inevitably win. I am confident that we will win. I really want it to happen this year. We have everything for this: diplomacy, confidence, friends, we have united all our forces against this invasion. I think that no country in the world can withstand such a war on its own. I think the United States can, but fortunately, it has no borders with Russia," he said at a press conference.
Ukraine is not standing alone, it has friends helping it to prevent this war from going any further, he added.
"We understand exactly what Putin and the Kremlin want. So it is very important that each of us focuses and works. And then there will be a victory," he argued.
The president added that Ukraine had initiated a formula for peace, which sets out step by step what the victory of Ukrainians should look like. Today, there is interest in implementing this formula. Zelenskyy expects a constituent summit on the formula that will bring together as many countries as possible. In particular, Ukraine is working to involve Latin America, India, China, and Africa.
One of the points is to ensure security guarantees. The diplomatic recording of the end of the war is the last point, all the other clauses must be fulfilled before that.
