First of all, the issues of reserves , rotation. We need to fix things and finish it. We can not only fight, we need to rest. One must understand: in so many days, then leave, rest, calculate your strength. To do this , you have to prepare your reserves properly. They are not properly prepared. This is also a fact. We must identify our weaknesses. They are there. They are there. and we have to correct them. And to correct them, we need to understand what is happening,” Zelensky said at a press conference.
