Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a speech last night that the war with Russia will not end until the Black Sea peninsula of Crimea, annexed by Moscow in 2014, is liberated.
“Crimea is Ukrainian and we will never leave it,” he said.
“The Black Sea region cannot be secure as long as Crimea is occupied. There will be no stable and lasting peace in the many countries bordering the Mediterranean as long as Russia is able to use our peninsula as its military base.”
“This Russian war against Ukraine and all of free Europe began with Crimea and must end with Crimea — with its liberation,” Mr. Zelensky insisted.
Earlier yesterday, explosions occurred at a Russian military base in Crimea. The Russian authorities spoke of the ignition of ammunition in a warehouse, with the account of the victims they gave speaking of one dead and five injured. Kyiv “of course does not take responsibility” for the explosion, “what do we have to do with it?”, said Mykhailo Podoliak, an adviser to President Zelensky, although the New York Times said in its online edition that it was a Ukrainian attack with an unspecified weapon.
