News Riddle Digital Desk: Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky on Russia’s ‘Most Wanted’ list! The Russian administration filed a criminal case against him and issued an arrest warrant. Zelensky has been targeted by Moscow since the start of military operations in Ukraine. A few days ago there were allegations that Russia is planning to kill him. Poland also claimed that a man involved in the plot had been arrested.
Russia’s interior ministry released its ‘most wanted’ list on Saturday, Russian news agency TASS reported. Where Zelensky is also named. However, Moscow did not say much about the arrest warrant of the Ukrainian president. Expressing anger over this report, Ukraine has said that Moscow is taking a new approach to put Kiev in trouble on the battlefield. It is nothing but an expression of frustration.
It is good to say that in February 2022, Russia started military operations in Ukraine. Arrest warrants have since been issued against several Ukrainian leaders, including some political leaders in several other European countries. Earlier, Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas, Lithuania’s Minister of Culture, and former members of the Latvian Legislature were added to the ‘wanted’ list by the Russian police. They were accused of demolishing Soviet-era monuments.

Meanwhile, over the last couple of months, Kiev has been gaining momentum on the battlefield to fight against Russia. According to AP sources, there are some places where it is becoming difficult to counter the attack of the Russian forces due to the lack of weapons. So Zelensky’s army is forced to retreat. In this regard, Colonel General of the Ukrainian Army, Alexander Sirsky, said, “Fighting against Russia on the Eastern Front is not easy. The situation is very bad now. So the army has been withdrawn from the three villages there. Bases have been built elsewhere to launch new attacks against Moscow.” Now Zelensky is blaming Moscow’s own weak air defense system for the loss of life in the attack. Again and again he is courting the Western world, including America, for tools.
