"We can't say that Russia is losing this war. But we can say that they are losing the initiative every day, day after day," he emphasized.

Journalists noted that over the past week, Russia has suffered a series of setbacks. For instance, drones attacked St. Petersburg, the hometown of dictator Putin. The occupied Crimea was also attacked, specifically a key land supply route. The Russian-occupied peninsula is experiencing a severe fuel shortage.

At the same time, the Russian offensive in eastern Ukraine has nearly come to a halt.

Zelenskyy said that the Kremlin is losing more than 30,000 troops every month, of whom 23,000 to 24,000 are killed and the rest are seriously wounded.

However, the president suggests that the actual figure may be higher.

"Overall, this is a very large number. It means they are not winning the war," he added.
