The President of Ukraine gave a clear answer.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is convinced that Russians must be held accountable for what they have done in Ukraine. He made these remarks at a press conference in Denmark on November 10, according to Gordon.

A reporter from the Christian publication Christian Daily asked Zelenskyy if, on Judgment Day, he would be able to forgive Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

“No, of course not,” Zelenskyy replied.

The journalist then asked, “What about reconciliation between Ukrainians and Russians?” and how Zelenskyy envisions that process.

“You know, this isn’t about forgiveness—and I’m not even sure they need it at all. They can’t bring themselves to realize that they are the aggressors. You see, these aren’t just some abstract concepts… They killed people—and that’s not an abstraction, but a very specific number of people in very specific cities. And they caused immense suffering in very specific lives. So when people talk about ‘forgiveness’… “Who am I? I’m just a human being, not God,” replied the President of Ukraine.

He emphasized that those responsible must be prosecuted; the killers must be found and held accountable for their actions.

““Yes, of course, the answers may vary; this is a matter for the courts, justice, and history. After all, I’m not sure that those responsible will be held accountable the moment the war ends—and I don’t know exactly when it will end, but it will definitely happen,” Zelenskyy said.
