Russian leader Vladimir Putin wants to destroy Ukraine. But the Ukrainian army responds decently.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky in an address to the nation on Facebook.

The President said that Ukraine is being attacked not only with bombs, but also with "fakes".

"It is important to get the truth only from official sources. Today, Russia attacked Ukraine. Putin started a war with Ukraine and the whole democratic world. He wants to destroy my state. It is the desire to destroy our state, what we have built and the reasons for our existence, ”Zelensky said.

Zelensky noted that the Ukrainian army has already received the first blow from the enemy and is responding appropriately:

"We know the strength of the Ukrainian army. You are brave! You will not be shaken! You are Ukrainian! ”

He called on Ukrainians not to panic and support the army.
