If I can give you my personal impression,
and I have come to Ukraine in the past three
years,
more than to Germany or anywhere else.
I spent many months here with our team,
met many people and reported a lot.
But my feeling is that there's more and more
pessimistic people about the goal of taking back the whole
territory.
I understand my feeling is
many Ukrainians don't believe anymore what you are saying,
that you will take back whole Ukraine.
This is the goal, this is the justice
to take all our territory.
I'm not speaking that all the territory with a weapon.
Like I said to you,
I think it's long way,
but I don't want to be very optimistic,
but I have to be very realistic.
If we have to save
independent Ukraine, democratic Ukraine, like a part of Europe
of future EU doesn't matter like nation.
If we want to save it,
we we need, we need to get back
our independence. It's not only territory,
it's also that
circumstances when people can come back,
it mean that all the investors and world business has
to believe
in Ukraine to the future.
That means without any frozen conflicts.
If this, Mr. President, if this doesn't work and if
another counter offensive fails and you can't take back the
land,
when is the time for you to sit down with
Vladimir Putin to negotiate?
But we, but we, we prepared
very concreted plan for diplomatic negotiating
with the first inaugural one will be in Switzerland and
but without Russia,
of course without Russia because we don't need them to
block anything.
But how can you? I,
I will tell, I will tell you,
we will prepare plan
and I think that some of the points will be
ready with details what to do
in the first, even in the first summit
with the most volume of the country,
the most number of the countries of the world.
And after that we will prepare all the plan.
And of course, some negotiators,
some representatives of continents will represent this plan,
will propose this plan to Russian representatives,
but only after we will have our joint common
opinion, common opinion of the countries who really want
peace. The past months, you,
you always said you would never sit down with Vladimir
Putin since the war started.
You said there's no way I'm sitting on one table
because he's a killer and he killed a lot of
our people.
If it's about negotiation on the platform of peace summit,
I think we will find
infrastructure or we will find some possibilities for
negotiate with some representatives, some or another.
There is not only problems with weapons at the front,
there's also a problem with mobilisation.
When I talked to soldiers at the front and we
visited many physicians in Abdivka and other areas in Bahamud,
they told us we've been here for two years or
even longer.
How's it possible that people in Kiev or Livie enjoying
their life and are not here at the front?
Is it possible to force people to go to the
front line
now? It's it's not about the force.
It's, it's not right Worth.
Yeah. I mean that we have mobilization from the first
days of the war.
And of course, parliament is prolonging this mobilization every three
months.
There are some changes to the
to the law, which are now in Parliament.
And I think that the parliament will warn these
changes. Of course, there are soldiers who are
from the first days. I'm very thankful to them.
And we all of all of us,
and they're heroes from the first day.
They're on the front line.
And of course, some of them are tired.
But we have also to look at the situation with
Russia,
which decided to mobilise 300,000 more people.
How many will you mobilise?
How many do you need to defend?
And at the same time you just said you would
organise a new country.
I, I will not share openly what will be the
number,
but the number will be enough to defend our country.
Very last question, Mr. President.
You've been in power now for almost five years.
I remember when you were lifted in
2019, in May, normally there would have been elections.
Now during wartime, this year there will be
probably no election.
How would you call yourself after May still president or
how would you call yourself then on when will it
be election?
The most important that I'm still Ukrainian
and I think that that this is the most important
thing about the presidency to when we when
we can organize
how to say the re elections,
yes, in elections,
when we, we can change the law
because today through I, I think you understand our law
today through our law,
we can't do it during the war,
so or war period. So I have to stop war
period.
It means to stop this law.
