Advisor to Zelensky: with heavy weapons, the war in Ukraine “will be won in 3-6 months”

Published on: 06/17/2022 – 2:13 pm The adviser to the Ukrainian president, Mikhaïlo Podolyak, gave an interview to France 24 to discuss the visit, Thursday, of European heads of state to Irpin and kyiv. If he recognizes the strong symbol of a united Europe behind Ukraine, the adviser to Volodymyr Zelensky insisted on the need for delivery of heavy weapons, which would make it possible to reverse the balance of forces in the face of Russian advances. Ukrainian journalist Mykhaïlo Podolyak, who became an adviser to Volodymyr Zelensky following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, returned with Marc Perelman to the visit of German, French, Italian and Romanian leaders to kyiv and Irpin on Thursday 16 June. He hailed this beautiful symbol of a united Europe behind Ukraine in the conflict with Russia, but urged the heads of state to deliver new heavy weapons, the key to a Ukrainian victory in the coming months. Mykhaïlo Podolyak also commented on the ambiguous position of Emmanuel Macron, in particular with regard to Vladimir Poutine, with whom he wants to maintain the dialogue. If he understands the obligation of the French president towards his people, he recalls that the Russian president is responsible for war crimes in his country. Maintaining the dialogue is necessary, but it is dangerous for Europe.
