Russian leader Vladimir Putin is "insane," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said as he journeys around Europe to shore up support for Kyiv ahead of the country's long-touted counteroffensive. "It's a joke for him," Zelensky said during a visit to Italy over the weekend, according to a Ukrainian media readout. "He does not understand what is happening. He is an insane human." "Russia started the war. Russia took lives. The war is on our land," Zelensky said, in a readout of his interview with Italian media published by his office. "We have not proposed an artificial plan. We have proposed how to get out of this situation, to end the war, according to the law, respecting the UN Charter, international law, people, values."

There is "no point in attempts by certain countries or influential individuals to mediate between Ukraine and Russia to end the war," according to Zelensky's office. However, Kyiv "welcomes the proposals of third parties to help overcome the crises provoked by the war and end the war," the presidential office said in a statement referring to Zelensky's appearance in Italian media. "We are a civilized state and we want peace, but a just peace. And we want fair and just sentences for the murderers," Zelensky told Italian outlets. Ukraine has been calling for increased military equipment deliveries as it prepares for its spring counteroffensive. However, Kyiv officials have declined to provide specific details on the nature of these operations. "We are preparing very seriously," Zelensky said in Italy. "And there will definitely be very serious steps. "You will definitely see it, and Russia will definitely feel it," he added. However, Zelensky said earlier this month that Ukraine would "need a bit more time" before launching this effort.

Zelenskyy's 10 point peace proposal.....

1. Radiation and nuclear safety, focusing on restoring safety around Europe's largest nuclear power plant, Zaporizhzhia in Ukraine, which is now-Russian occupied.

2. Food security, including protecting and ensuring Ukraine's grain exports to the world's poorest nations.

3. Energy security, with focus on price restrictions on Russian energy resources, as well as aiding Ukraine with restoring its power infrastructure, half of which has been damaged by Russian attacks.

4. Release of all prisoners and deportees, including war prisoners and children deported to Russia.

5. Restoring Ukraine's territorial integrity and Russia reaffirming it according the U.N. Charter, which Zelenskiy said is "not up to negotiations".

6. Withdrawal of Russian troops and cessation of hostilities, restoration of Ukraine's state borders with Russia.

7. Justice, including the establishment of a special tribunal to prosecute Russian war crimes.

8. Prevention of ecocide, need for protection of environment, with focus on demining and restoring water treatment facilities.

9. Prevention of escalation of conflict, and building security architecture in the Euro-Atlantic space, including guarantees for Ukraine.

10. Confirmation of the war's end, including a document signed by the involved parties.

Zelenskyy is smart, he's not going to be Putin's sucker, his people have suffered and died enough already. His peace proposal makes sense and is reasonable, I wish him success. Peace and Freedom for the Ukrainian people, that is the ultimate goal that they deserve.

Oh fer cryin' out loud..."it's just a mild amputation of Ukraine" according to those who side with Putin.
I will never ever EVER forget that a person interpreted Russia's invasion that way.

Zelenskyy is a clever man. Speaking to the old and the young at the same time, to the exclusion of neither.

1. Radiation and nuclear safety, focusing on restoring safety around Europe's largest nuclear power plant, Zaporizhzhia in Ukraine, which is now-Russian occupied.

Sorry, that is Russian property

2. Food security, including protecting and ensuring Ukraine's grain exports to the world's poorest nations.

Zelensky can export grain through Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania. Oooops they dont want any Ukrainian grain on their soil

3. Energy security, with focus on price restrictions on Russian energy resources, as well as aiding Ukraine with restoring its power infrastructure, half of which has been damaged by Russian attacks.

Russian prices are a matter between Russia and its customers. Zelensky has no say in that

5. Restoring Ukraine's territorial integrity and Russia reaffirming it according the U.N. Charter, which Zelenskiy said is "not up to negotiations".

A much smaller Ukraine will be guaranteed by Russia

6. Withdrawal of Russian troops and cessation of hostilities, restoration of Ukraine's state borders with Russia.

Ukraine will have secure and guaranteed borders with Russia along Kherson, Zapporhizia, Luhansk, Donetsk. Maybe more. I think Kharkiv should also be amputated from Ukraine, too many ethnic Russians in Kharkiv to leave up to the tender mercies of Bandera



Did you forget to include regime change and reparations?

The Ruscists will be gone from all of Zaporizhizhia sometime in June.
