🚨🇺🇦 Zelensky has drawn a clear red line in the negotiations: Ukraine will neither surrender nor hand over Donbas to Russia, and Kyiv’s position remains unchanged.
The Ukrainian president also said the United States will increase Patriot missile production next year, with Ukraine expecting additional systems and interceptors. Addressing Russia’s recent attacks, Zelensky described the continuing terror as a new Putin tactic ahead of elections and promised a Ukrainian response. He added that Ukraine has become stronger over the course of this year and praised Ukrainian forces for creating the conditions in which diplomacy can still be given a chance.
🔥 The message is firm but calibrated: Kyiv is keeping negotiations open while refusing territorial capitulation and preparing for continued military pressure. More Patriot capacity would strengthen Ukraine’s ability to absorb Russian air attacks, while the Donbas issue remains the core political obstacle to any settlement.
