We are returning Kherson – Zelensky
KYIV. Nov 11 (Interfax-Ukraine) – President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky has said that "Ukraine is returning Kherson."
"Today is a historic day. We are returning Kherson. To date, our defenders are on the outskirts of the city. But special units are already in the city," he said in a video message on Friday.
"Kherson residents were waiting. We have never given up on Ukraine. Hope for Ukraine is always justified – and Ukraine always returns its own. And even when the city has not yet been completely cleared of the hostile presence, the residents of Kherson themselves are already removing Russian symbols and any traces of the occupiers’ stay in Kherson from the streets and buildings," Zelensky said.
According to him, "it was the same in all other cities liberated by our defenders."
"It will be the same in those cities that are still waiting for our return. Ukraine will come to all its people. And I thank every soldier and every unit of the Defense Forces who are now ensuring the conduct of this offensive operation in the south. Absolutely everyone – from common soldiers to generals. The Armed Forces, intelligence, the SBU, the National Guard – all those who brought today closer for Kherson," the president said.
