Zelensky: influential players seek his removal due to unchanging stance on territories

Pressure on the head of state

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that certain influential figures are attempting to secure his replacement in office. According to him, the reason for such intentions is his consistent position regarding the sovereignty of Ukrainian lands.

“Деякі впливові люди хочуть мене змінити, тому що я ніколи не прийму думку про те, що українська земля може бути російською” (Some influential people want to replace me because I will never accept the idea that Ukrainian land can be Russian), the head of state emphasised.

Dialogue with Piers Morgan

These remarks were made during an interview the president gave to journalist Piers Morgan. During the conversation, the interviewer asked Volodymyr Zelensky whether it was possible to achieve victory without the support of the United States of America.

In response, the leader of the nation categorically denied the possibility of losing state sovereignty. He confirmed that Ukraine would remain an independent state regardless of the circumstances.

“Ми ні в якому разі не втратимо нашу незалежність” (We will in no way lose our independence), the president concluded.
