Putin and Zelensky visit troop positions as Kiev prepares for counterattack

 As the entry into the war between Russia and Ukraine neared its 14th month and for the second time in two months, Russian President Vladimir Putin paid a visit to the command posts of his troops fighting in Ukraine, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made his last visit to positions near the front line as Kyiv prepares for a possible counterattack with weapons provided by the West.

The visits of both Presidents Putin and Zelensky on different days and in different provinces seek to strengthen the resolve of soldiers on the front lines.
