Kyiv - In the Ukraine conflict, the efforts of the troops of Russian ruler Vladimir Putin are focusing on the Donbass.
This map shows where the Ukraine war is raging.
The heavy Russian attacks are currently hitting the city of Sievjerodonetsk in Luhansk in particular.
The capture of the strategically important city would open the way for the Russian military to take control of the entire Luhansk Oblast and further attack neighboring Donetsk - two main objectives of the Russian war of aggression.
More than 100 days have passed since the invasion began and fighting is still ongoing in eastern Ukraine.
A quick Russian victory is no longer in sight.
Although the Russian side reported successes, resistance from the Ukrainian military stalled Moscow's offensive.
Still, Russia insists that the invasion is going according to plan and is trying to defend that narrative on the diplomatic front as well.
Ukraine negotiations: Invasion going according to plan, according to Nebenzya - 'give it a little time'
"Can you say that after 100 days of armed conflict, the Russian invasion of Ukraine is going according to plan?" BBC presenter Steven Sackur asked Russia's UN envoy, Vasily Nebensia, on
HardTalk
.
The Russian diplomat replied that in his view there was indeed ongoing progress.
After all, nobody promised a result in “three days or a week”.
Sackur followed up with Nebensia and asked him about the failed Russian attacks on the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.
"I don't know of any such plans," the Russian UN envoy claimed, referring to Russia's intention to capture the city.
After all, no one from Russia has said that Moscow wants to take control of the Ukrainian capital.
Currently, the goal is “the liberation of Donbass”.
Nebensja said: "Give us a little time.
You will see the liberation of Donetsk and Luhansk.”
Ukraine negotiations: Selenskyj with Corona comparison - "why is the vaccine so hard to get?"
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian head of state Volodymyr Zelenskyy drew a comparison between the Russian war of aggression and the corona virus.
Weapons and sanctions are the vaccination.
"Guns and sanctions are a vaccine against the disease Covid-22 introduced by Russia," Ukrainian state agency
Ukrinform
quoted him as saying from the "Time100 Gala" event.
Hate is a much deadlier disease than Covid-19, Zelenskyj warned.

The "virus of Russian aggression" continues to spread through propaganda, impunity, Russian oil still on the world market, and Russian money still moving in the international financial system.
Zelenskyy targeted particularly large companies, according to which there was "little blood on the money from the Russian market".
The Ukrainian head of state then returned to his Corona comparison and asked: "And why is it so difficult to get the vaccine - weapons and sanctions - in sufficient quantities?"
