"Afraid": the Russian Federation tries to stop the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces, but they lose - Zelensky

With the help of Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power plants, the occupiers tried to delay the beginning of active fighting. They are aware that they lose this battle for any schedule, the head of state is convinced. The Russian Federation is trying to delay the liberation of the Ukrainian territories, but their plans will soon be destroyed. The blast of Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power plants will not change anything.

This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in a new interview with Bild on June 7. According to the Head of State, with the help of the blasting of the Kakhovsky dam, Russians want to delay the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces, which has not yet begun. But this situation will not force Ukrainian defenders to leave plans and the enemy will still lose.

"They are afraid that we will start a counter -offensive in this direction and want to complicate the liberation of our territories. They are well aware that they lose this battle. They will delay the liberation of our territories," the message reads. In addition, he recalled that a year ago, Ukrainian officials told about a difficult situation in the Kakhovska hydroelectric power station and that it was replaced. This information was also among partners.

Currently, direct evidence of Russia's guilt cannot be obtained, Volodymyr Zelenskyy continues. They can only be viewed after the Armed Forces returned control over the territory where the station was located. "It happened only through Russia and the people who are currently controling this region," the statement said. We will remind, on June 6 Volodymyr Zelenskyy told how the Russians blew up the Kakhovsk hydroelectric power station.
