Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has reaffimed his firm refusal to cede any territory, resisting U.S. pressure for a painful compromise with Russia as he continued to rally European support for Ukraine.
“Undoubtedly, Russia insists for us to give up territories. We, clearly, don’t want to give up anything. That’s what we are fighting for,” Zelenskyy said in a WhatsApp chat late Monday in which he answered reporters’ questions.
“Do we consider ceding any territories? According to the law we don’t have such right. According to Ukraine’s law, our constitution, international law, and to be frank, we don’t have a moral right either.”
Sure. That’s a very reasonable measure too. Can you find GNI data that suggests that Russia’s economy will collapse soon enough for it to be useful for Ukraine?
Not going to waste my time. How about Russia dipping into its gold reserves?
Then why even reply? The whole point of this thread is to examine evidence of realistic claims about Russia and Ukraine. If you present evidence that you haven’ tbothered to look at yourself why would anyone think it supports your claim?
Sealion.
What evidience do you have? I never made a claim, I just provided a common metric that economists use to indicate indicate - something.
I posted evidence at the top of the thread. You’re the one saying it’s not good enough so I’m suggesting that you should be the one to provide better evidence to the contrary.
