Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has recently visited the government-controlled part of the Kherson region, as he stated in his Telegram channel. During the visit, he met with servicemen, and corresponding footage was shared on his social media accounts.
Zelensky addressed the key issue of the situation on the main frontline directions, including Avdiivka, Kupyansk, and the South. His visit aimed to assess the military operations carried out by Ukrainian forces.
In the night of October 20th, Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of Russian President Vladimir Putin, announced that Putin had visited the headquarters of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Rostov-on-Don. According to Peskov, Putin visited the headquarters after his trip to Perm. It is reported that the President was briefed on the progress of the special military operation by the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Valery Gerasimov.
Peskov later stated that the visit was “an operationally coordinated trip and was not planned in advance.” It was later revealed that Putin held an operational meeting with the permanent members of the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
Previously, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred to the situation in Ukraine as less interesting to Europe.
This visit by President Zelensky to the Kherson region demonstrates his commitment to assessing the military situation and supporting Ukrainian troops on the frontlines. Meanwhile, President Putin’s visit to the headquarters of the Russian Armed Forces raises questions about the nature of the military operation and the intentions behind it. The situation in Ukraine continues to be a matter of concern for Europe and the international community, with ongoing tensions and potential implications for regional security.
It is important to closely monitor the developments in Ukraine and the actions of both Ukrainian and Russian leaders, as they have the potential to shape the future of the region. The international community must remain vigilant and actively engage in diplomatic efforts to ensure a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
