Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday hailed his country for having repulsed Russian troops from areas around Kyiv a year ago.
"You have stopped the biggest force against humanity of our time. You have stopped a force that despises everything and wants to destroy everything that gives people meaning," Zelensky said on Telegram, along with photos of areas liberated a year ago, when Russian troops retreated from around the Ukrainian capital.
