‘Ukraine Will Put an End to the History of Moscow’s Despotism’ – Zelensky

President Zelensky has declared that Ukraine will bring an end to Moscow’s history of despotism which has “been bringing enslavement to many different peoples for a very long time.”

Speaking in an address to mark Kyiv Day on Sunday, he highlighted the massive Russian attack against the capital the previous night which saw 54 kamikaze drones target the capital.

While most were successfully shot down, a few managed to cause damage in the Zhytomyr region. 

“Nevertheless, we were able to prevent most of the destruction and save numerous lives that could have been lost to these Shaheds,” Zelensky said.

“I am grateful to each and every person who contributed to this achievement! The Anti-Aircraft Missile Troops, Air Force aviation, Ground Forces’ air defense, and our mobile fire groups... Thank you, warriors!” he added.

The Kyiv region has borne the brunt of recent attacks from Russia which continued Sunday night and Monday morning.

The President added, “This is how Russia chooses to commemorate the day of our ancient Kyiv.”

“Throughout its history, Kyiv has witnessed various acts of aggression from invaders. It has overcome them all, and it will prevail against the Russian aggressors. None of them shall remain here!” he said.

“Kyiv, along with all our cities and the entirety of Ukraine, will put an end to Moscow’s despotism, which has enslaved numerous peoples for an extensive period.”
