"We live and fight under 'Plan B' because we never had a 'Plan A,'" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on a press conference with EU President Ursula von der Leyen in Kyiv on September 20.

"Yesterday, a journalist asked me one question: “What will happen if President Biden does not support your plan? Do you have a "Plan B"?' I honestly replied that we are already on “Plan B.” We are living and fighting in it. We never had a “Plan A.” Because “Plan A” was to prevent a full-scale invasion," the President said.

Zelenskyy also highlighted the joint efforts towards the full implementation of the Peace Formula. According to him, it is necessary to strengthen Ukraine as much as possible to hold a second Peace Summit this year.
