Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned Ukrainian officials to stop talking about the military campaign against Russia, saying the war is “definitely not the time for vanity and loud statements”.
In a video message on Thursday (11), Zelensky sternly addressed military commanders and state officials.
“The less concrete details you give about our defense plans, the better it will be for implementing those defense plans,” Zelensky said.
“You must feel your responsibility for every word you say about what our state prepares for defense or counteroffensive.”
“The general rule is simple: war is definitely not the time for vanity and loud statements.”
Zelensky’s remarks come after a top Ukrainian commander spoke at length about plans to free the southern city of Kherson from Russian forces by the end of the year.
In an interview, Major General Dmytro Marchenko spoke about Ukrainian operations to disable bridges over the Dnipro River used by Russian forces to resupply their units at Kherson. “I want to convey to the people of Kherson that it will not be as long as everyone hopes. It will be fast,” Marchenko said.
Zelensky did not mention Marchenko by name in his video speech, but Ukrainian defense officials said investigations into “a high-ranking military official” were ongoing.
