Zelensky called Putin a "sick grandfather" and announced strikes on all parts of Russian Federation

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the nation and said that our state had become an example for many countries how not to be afraid and defend their borders. At the same time, he called Putin "sick" and said that Kiev was ready to attack any neighbourhood of Russia. This was stated by President Vladimir Zelensky in an address to Independence Day.

Will not be a sick grandfather from Red Square, constantly threatening everyone with a red button, to dictate us some of his red lines, - he said.

He added that the Ukrainian response could reach any point in Russia, and Ukraine had brought the war back to the Russian Federation.

And whoever wanted to turn our land into a buffer zone should think about preventing his country from turning into a buffer federation," Zelensky said.

The President also said that Ukraine had used a new drone missile "Palianitsya" for the first time on the battlefield. The head of state called the munition "a new class of weapon", at the same time he did not specify what the new weapon is and against what object it was used.

This is a drone missile, which is much faster than our long-range drones. And more powerful. These are all the details on which I am ready for an open conversation for now," he emphasised.
