” Right behind me is a playground, which has also become a target, “the president of Ukraine added.
” They say that they want to push Ukraine in the 18th century, but they themselves hit in more ancient times, during the days of savages, which they became quite conscious. But Ukraine still remains in the 21st century, – Zelensky said. – Kyiv I saw different strangers and survived them all. Kyiv will survive and this invasion of terrorists who do not have history, no traditions, no culture. “
