Russian RBC media quoted him as saying.

"I think we need to attack more actively, we need to hit hard while we have time. This month we need to take the nearest territory. We must take Odesa and Kharkiv," Kadyrov said.

And after that, according to the Chechen leader, Ukraine should be forced to sign a peace agreement:

"Then put this Zelenskyy in jail and make him sign all the papers that are necessary for Russia, for the security of our state, citizens, and the Russian-speaking population living in Ukraine," Kadyrov added.

  • Putin's "inauguration" for his fifth term took place today, May 7. It was attended by representatives of six EU member states. In addition to France, they were Hungary, Slovakia, Malta, Cyprus, and Greece.
