“If Putin does not want to end this war and wishes to continue it — we will not sit quietly, we will respond,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his comments on Ukraine’s strike on Moscow's oil refinery on Thursday morning.
“If Ukraine burns, so will Moscow," Zelenskyy said.
Ukraine’s president said Kyiv’s drone strike on the Moscow oil refinery is Kyiv’s response to Russia’s attack against the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, one of the most important historic and religious symbols of Ukraine.
“We were at the Lavra, and I said we will prepare a response and you will see it. I think you are seeing it now,” Zelenskyy said, insisting that all Kyiv wants is to end Russia’s war.
“We do not want this war and never have. Everyone knows this, and our partners know it too," he explained.
