Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on War Duration

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in an interview for the YouTube channel «BBC News Ukraine,» expressed his stance on the duration of the conflict in the Ukrainian war. He emphasized that no one would agree to a war that would last for many years, as it would result in numerous casualties and create difficulties for the world at large.

When asked about potentially remaining in office as president if the conflict lasts for another 10 years, Zelensky firmly stated that such a scenario is unrealistic and cannot be allowed to happen. He highlighted the need to find ways to end the conflict and prevent further loss of lives.
