A: Hey! Did you hear anything about Ukraine lately?

B: No, not really. What's up?

A: Apparently, President Zelenskyy gave an interview. It’s pretty serious.

B: Oh? What did he say?

A: He said around 55,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died since the war started. That was nearly four years ago now, remember?

B: Wow, that’s a lot. Did he say that before too?

A: He did! Last year, he said it was over 46,000. So, the number is getting higher. Also, he mentioned a lot of people are missing.

B: That's terrible. Is anything changing?

A: Well, he said President Macron of France is planning to talk to Putin again!

B: Really? That’s something.

A: Yeah! Zelenskyy thinks pressure on Russia isn't strong enough. He wants them to talk, but with certain rules.

B: Macron’s advisor went to Moscow already, huh?

A: That's right! It’s all quite a complicated situation.
