President Zelensky: Unspun World Special
In a wide-ranging interview to mark a year since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, President Zelensky sits down with the BBC's John Simpson in Kyiv. President Zelensky says he won't concede territory to Russia in any future peace deal to end the war and warns Belarus against helping a renewed Russian offensive. He reflects on images of some of the pivotal moments of the conflict and discusses the predicted spring offensive and its impact on Ukrainian forces.
