Zelenskyy: Operation in Kursk region is part of Ukraine's plan, which I will discuss with Biden

Fighting in the Kursk region is part of Ukraine's plan. It will be discussed with US President Joe Biden, states President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy at a press conference.

"Kursk region is part of the plan that I will discuss with Biden," the president noted.

According to him, the main element of such a plan from Kyiv is an attempt to force Russia to end the war against Ukraine.

Operation in the Kursk region

A few weeks ago, Ukrainian defenders managed to break into the Kursk region. They overcame minefields and advanced into the region.

In the Kursk region, soldiers with little combat experience and conscripts were concentrated, and they could not resist the experienced Ukrainian troops.

In the early days of the offensive, the Ukrainian Armed Forces succeeded in capturing a large number of Russians. According to Western media, the exchange fund was replenished with thousands of enemy soldiers.

The United States did not condemn Ukraine's actions. Specifically, US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller emphasized that the Ukrainians "are not violating Washington's policy."

Moreover, Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh stated that her country allows Ukraine to strike the Kursk region to protect against Russian attacks on the Sumy region.

Today, August 27, President Zelenskyy announced a meeting with Biden, likely to take place during the UN General Assembly session.

According to the president, he plans to present Biden with a plan for Ukraine's victory in September.
