Zelensky visited Kherson on November 14 and said that any peace agreement with Moscow necessarily provides for the withdrawal of all Russian troops from Ukraine. "It is clear that the Russian occupation of Ukraine is now a defense operation," said Reuters on the conditions of anonymity. According to him, the withdrawal of troops from Kherson took place quite orderly.
Moscow's statements about the withdrawal of 30,000 soldiers were exaggerated, the real number approached the figure of 20 thousand, he continued. The source expects a static situation on the battlefield in 2023. "If people expect forces on both sides, we see nothing that would indicate it from that moment until the end of the year. None of the parties are in such a state that its forces are collapse," he described the state of affairs . .
