In his address, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that no one will dictate to Ukraine how to live and what path to choose, especially «the sick grandfather from Red Square.»

He said this in his address to the Independence Day of Ukraine.

According to Volodymyr Zelenskyy, only Ukraine and Ukrainians have the right to determine their own path and make their own choices.

«There won't be a sick grandfather from Red Square who constantly threatens everyone with a red button to dictate some red lines to us. How to live, what path to take, what choice to make will be determined for themselves only by Ukraine and Ukrainians. Because that's how independence works,» he said.

The President emphasized that Russia will learn what Ukrainian retaliation is and sooner or later the Ukrainian response will fly to every point of Russia.

«Our enemy will know what retribution is in Ukrainian, long-range, dignified, symmetrical. We will know that sooner or later a Ukrainian response will fly to every point of the Russian Federation that is a danger to the life of our state and our people. The faded eyes of their chief perceive the whole world as a gray zone, and we will not allow the land where the blue-yellow flag should be by right to be turned into a gray zone,» Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

We will remind, in the Voronezh region, in the Ostrohozk district, a night attack by drones was announced on August 24. As a result, the ammunition warehouse caught fire and began to detonate.
