KYIV, Sept 1 – President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Friday there will be no peace with Russia until Ukraine recaptures Crimea and Donbas, the two areas that Russia has seized in 2014 and subsequently annexed.

Speaking via video link at Italy's Forum of the European House Ambrosetti, "without Crimea, without Donbas, without our occupied territories, there will be no real sustainable peace in Ukraine, which means there will be no peace in this European area".
