Zelenskiy says frontline situation best for Ukraine in the last 10 months
KYIV, April 3 (Reuters) - President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said the frontline situation for Ukraine was the best in 10 months, adding that Kyiv's troops had foiled a Russian offensive last month.
"The offensive they were planning for March was thwarted by the actions of our armed forces. That is why the Russians will now simply step up their assault operations," Zelenskiy said, in remarks released by his office on Friday.
The Ukrainian leader said that he invited U.S. negotiators to visit Kyiv during an online meeting earlier this week and had heard "positive signals" in response to his proposal.
"Overall, the front line is holding ... The situation is complex, but the best it has been in the last 10 months," he said, citing data from the Ukrainian and British intelligence.
