President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appealed to Ukrainians who have already begun to "rest" with a reminder that the war with Russia continues.

The head of state urged to unite and regain strength of spirit as soon as possible.

Zelensky made his statement at a press conference following the results of the Ukraine-EU summit on February 3 in Kyiv.

The President emphasized that it is the spirit within Ukraine that motivates its defenders.

"I believe that

from the very beginning of our war, the spirit was stronger

. We were all at war. In the cities where there was no occupation, we had the feeling that we were all at war.

Now I see in some cities that they are on vacation

I believe that this is a weakness," Zelensky said.

So he 

called on Ukrainians to unite as soon as possible to strengthen their spirit

and to remind those who have already begun to rest that the war continues.

The President emphasized that the main task for Ukraine now is to prevent revenge and prevent Russia from repeating the invasion, as at the beginning of a full-scale war.

"Not to pay attention to some small things, but to deal with the main issue of our state - the war. And therefore, without this spirit, what can I tell you, I believe that

without this spirit there will be no victory

. And without victory, there will be no Ukraine. Everything in in our hands. We are ready. I hope you are too," Zelenskyy said.

Russia's new offensive

We will remind you that Russia is preparing a new large-scale offensive against Ukraine.

According to Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov, the enemy may make this attempt around February 24.  

Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of the NSDC, warned that the occupiers could launch an attack from the north, south and east, as happened on February 24, 2022.

He also emphasized that the main battles will take place in the next two to three months.

The ex-head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine Mykola Malomuzh believes that the Russian Federation will act in two stages during its new offensive: the first - in February-March, the second - in late spring-early summer.

During the first stage, the enemy will advance on Donetsk region, Luhansk region and Zaporizhzhia.

According to the forecast of the director of the CIA, William Burns, the next six months of war will be critical and this period will be decisive.
