Quote from Zelenskyy: "Our heroic people, our troops on the front of the front line are facing very tough resistance. Because for Russia to lose this campaign to Ukraine, I would say, actually means losing the war."

Details: Giving an interview in Kyiv on Thursday, Zelenskyy said that the news from the front "is generally positive but it is very difficult".

NBC News notes that it recorded an interview with the president a few days after the start of the long-awaited counteroffensive aimed at ousting Russian forces from the occupied territory of Ukraine.

A counteroffensive may prove crucial not only for Zelenskyy's hopes of regaining the captured land, but also for maintaining allied support, which may be weakened due to difficulties on the battlefield and domestic politics, the newspaper notes.
