The Armed Forces remain in Bakhmut and perform an important task - Zelensky (video)

The statements of the Russians regarding the full control of the city, as the Head of State assures, are not true. Joe Biden, for his part, stated that Russia has lost about 100,000 people in Bakhmut in Bakhmut. The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to be in Bakhmut and fulfill an important task. This means that no capture of the city by the Russians is discussed. This was emphasized by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky during a press conference at the G7 summit on May 21.

According to him, the defense forces are still in the city in the Donetsk region, which does not allow the Russians to declare full control over Bakhmut. "We see that a country that is more than dozens of times, cannot occupy us and win this war. And I think, a little more, and we will win," the message reads. Separately, the President of Ukraine stated that the military command first cares about the lives of defenders who continue to defend the city and perform an important task within it.

He cannot tell more details because it can help the enemy on the battlefield. "The hardest thing is if there was a military tactical mistake in Bakhmut, and people would be surrounded . . . Today they perform a very important task, today they are in Bakhmut. At what points, not to share, but it indicates that Bakhmut is not covered today Russian Federation. There can be no two interpretations of this, " - the message reads. Commented for Bakhmut and US President Joe Biden.

He believes that the loss of occupiers in this area of ​​the front is already exceeding 100 thousand people, but the Russians are not going to abandon its full occupation and daily lose a huge number of people from personnel. "About Bakhmut is said - or not. The truth is that Russia has suffered losses of more than 100,000 people in Bakhmut. It will be difficult to fill. No matter whether it is occupied or not - there are still not many buildings left there. This is a destroyed city.

But they managed to raise many Russian troops, including the Wagner group, "the US President said. We will remind, on May 21 Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on the situation in Bakhmut, but the Western media misunderstood his words and declared the occupation of the city. The presidential office was denied, stating that the city's defense continues. The ISW report on May 20 states that the statements of the Russian Federation about the "capture" of Bakhmut are not strategic.
