'We have to be prepared' for Russian attacks in the northeastern Kharkiv region, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said earlier this month.
Ukraine's second-largest city, located just miles from the Russian border, is an appetizing target for Moscow—and Kyiv knows it.'Kharkiv is one of the capitals of Ukraine, so it has great symbolic meaning,' Ukrainian leader, Volodymyr Zelensky, told German newspaper Bild earlier this month. Kyiv is 'doing everything we can' to prevent Russian forces sweeping in and seizing control of the second-largest city in the country, the Ukrainian president added.
'But it will be at the cost of tens of thousands of lives of Ukrainian soldiers,' each working to hold back a Russian military with more equipment and more troops, he told Newsweek.'Without American help we will have a hard time,' Zadubinnyi said. 'But we have no choice. We have to stand to the death.'There are caveats to Russia's hypothetical assault on Kharkiv.
