On March 1, 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin suffered his fifth major defeat since the day of the full-scale invasion, as Ukraine defeated his winter terror.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba, wrote about this on his Facebook page.
"We endured the hardest winter in our history. We were cold and dark, but we were indomitable.
Together with us, partners stood side by side with their help. The EU also won, which, despite Moscow's laughter, also did not freeze without Russian gas. Russia has one piece of advice: suffocate with your gas and choke with your missiles," Dmytro Kuleba emphasized.
The first defeat was when the Ukrainians from the first minutes of the offensive did not allow Putin to paralyze the country with fear.
The Kremlin leader suffered a second defeat when the Armed Forces of Ukraine foiled the Russian blitzkrieg plan.
"Ukraine fell neither in three days, nor in seven, nor in a month, nor in a year. And it will never fall," Dmytro Kuleba is convinced.
The third defeat, says the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ukraine inflicted on the Russian Federation on the diplomatic front, because the world coalition is for Ukraine, there are resolutions, isolation, flows of weapons, sanctions, energy, financial and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
Putin suffered his fourth defeat, losing a significant part of the occupied territories of Ukraine as a result of the effective actions and counterattacks of the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
"There is still a long way to the final victory. But you and I already know how to win. We have to work for it every day and believe in Ukraine," Dmytro Kuleba stressed.
