We will lose Kherson and Pokrovsk Zelenskyy rejected the idea of a buffer zoneThe president stated this at a press conference after the meeting of the Coalition of the Resolute.According to Zelenskyy, he heard the question of a demilitarized zone and the disengagement of troops from different people, from different intelligence services.
However, he noted that no one had officially proposed this to Ukraine.Like sappers everyone is looking for some opportunities, what other experiment to conduct with us.At the same time, he noted that this idea is not very alive.
It depends on the monitoring format.
The question of a demilitarized zone in both directions why 15..
And from which line will we count, from the border, from which contact line.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy President of Ukraine According to the president, many difficulties arise in this issue.
He mentioned that missiles were also fired at Ukraine from the territory of Belarus, and therefore it follows that 15 km deep into the Belarusian border, according to the corresponding logic, a DMZ should also be created.
In addition, the range of modern artillery and drones significantly exceeds 15 km.
Even if we talk about 15 kilometers, what will we do with the city of Kherson This immediately means that there will be no our troops in Kherson.
There will be no our troops in Kherson we will not have Kherson.
He added that the situation is similar, in particular, with Pokrovsk and other frontline cities.The illusion that there will be no ceasefire violations there are no illusions, they will be.
But this is a very important step.
If after that we agree on a buffer zone and move 15 kilometers, then cities such as Kherson, Kharkiv and Sumy, everyone will have peace, but the war will continue for them.
Because artillery will reach them.
Therefore, it is premature to talk about this.
The idea of disengagement of troops, ed.
is not alive today.Let us recall that the other day, the US Presidents special representative for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, voiced the idea of a demilitarized zone, which would be controlled by Ukraine and Russia.
According to him, the Ukrainian army and the Russian army could withdraw 15 km from the current line of contact on both sides, which would supposedly make it possible to create a demilitarized zone and monitor it.
