Zelensky stressed that peace in the Donbas and the de-occupation of Crimea are his priorities. The President noted that as long as Crimea remains occupied, and Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars are regularly persecuted there, the world should not forget about Crimea.
“Those who surrendered Crimea without a fight should be held accountable. I want everyone to understand: the purpose is not revenge, the purpose is justice. Society needs answers”,- he explained.
