Zelenskyy was asked whether he would run in the elections.

Quote: "If the war continues – yes, if the war ends – no. I can't run away during the war...

I can't tell you the exact date, I think no one [can – ed.]... I know we are going on a counteroffensive, [I know] that Russia will leave our territories. I think I know when, but I can't tell you that either.

This is the last stage of the war. This is not the middle. The first stage was the occupation, followed by stopping the offensive and taking the initiative into one's own hands. I think we are at the last part. We have many fears: [about] money, weapons... But we are at the last, most difficult part."
