Quote: "I believe that the people of Ukraine will answer this question. Either in the format of elections or in the format of a referendum, but there must be a position of the people of Ukraine."

Details: Zelenskyy added that much now depends on the situation at the front lines and the capabilities of the Ukrainian military.

Quote: "Let us see how all this will unfold further. Right now, in fact, a lot depends, I believe, on our armed forces. On what the Ukrainian military can hold back, how they can stand, and where they can destroy the occupier. This affects the entire diplomatic framework."
