Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Vladimir Putin has repeatedly promised to seize Donetsk within a few months, but has failed to deliver. Zelenskyy described the claim as part of a recurring pattern of Russian rhetoric aimed at projecting strength and maintaining pressure on Ukraine. Donetsk remains central to Moscow’s territorial ambitions and one of the war’s most contested areas in eastern Ukraine. The comments underscore continuing distrust between the two sides as fighting and diplomatic tensions persist across the region today.
