President Zelensky announced a partial mobilization

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced a partial mobilization tonight, saying he was calling for reservists for a period of time, while ruling out a general mobilization for the time being, following Russia’s announcement that it was sending troops to eastern Ukraine.

Zelensky said he was still seeking a way out of the crisis through diplomacy, and welcomed Turkey’s intention to participate in multilateral talks, while stressing that Ukraine would not cede territory to Russia.

Addressing the Ukrainian people after the cross-party meeting in parliament, President Zelensky also announced a program of “economic patriotism” that includes incentives for domestic production and a reduction in VAT on gasoline.
