The Washington Post yesterday published an interview with Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelensky by senior editor Lally Weymouth in which he obsessed about Western sanctions - he wants “powerful sanctions” on Russia now ahead of the much anticipated invasion - and claimed that all Ukrainians, including Russian speakers, will come forward to defend Ukraine against a Russian attack. What made headlines, however, was his prediction that Vladimir Putin will take Kharkiv because it’s a Russian-speaking city (and very close to the border with Russia).
