🇺🇦🇷🇺 ZELENSKYY WARNS PUTIN: “IF UKRAINE BURNS, MOSCOW WILL BURN TOO” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has delivered one of his starkest warnings to Moscow, making clear that Russia cannot expect to continue its invasion without facing consequences on its own territory. “If Putin does not want to end this war and wishes to continue it, we will not sit quietly.” He followed with an even sharper message: “If Ukraine burns, your Moscow will burn too.” The warning comes as Ukraine continues to expand its ability to strike targets deep inside Russia, particularly infrastructure linked to Moscow’s military operations and war economy. For years, Russia has launched missiles and drones against Ukrainian cities while relying on the vast distances separating much of its own territory from the battlefield. Ukraine’s growing long-range strike capabilities are challenging that advantage. Zelenskyy’s remarks signal a determination to make the continuation of the war increasingly costly for Moscow. The threat is unmistakable, although the distinction between legitimate military targets and civilian areas remains essential. Putin may still believe he can outlast Ukraine. Zelenskyy is warning that prolonging the war will carry consequences much closer to Russia’s capital.
