Zelensky: War with Russia is closer to ending than we realize.
Volodymyr Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, stated that the war with Russia might finish sooner than most people believe.
I believe we are getting closer to peace than we realize
Again urging his Western partners to bolster the Ukrainian army, he said.
Saying that only if Kyiv was approaching the conflict from a “firm posture” could Ukraine force Russian President Vladimir Putin to cease it.
This week, the president of Ukraine is in the US to address the UN General Assembly and offer his Western allies—including US President Joe Biden—what he has dubbed a “winning plan.”
Prior to the visit, Zelensky released a statement outlining the strategy, which included supplying more weaponry, attempting to persuade.
Russia to accept peace through diplomacy, and holding Moscow responsible for its full-scale invasion in 2022.
Zelensky stated in an interview with ABC News that his victory strategy was “a bridge to a diplomatic way out, to cease the war,” rather than focusing on talks with Russia.
Dmitry Peskov, a spokesperson for the Kremlin stated on Tuesday that Russia was being circumspect about media rumors of a Ukrainian.
Plan and that the fight would only conclude when Russia’s objectives were met.
Zelensky has been pleading with Western nations for some time to permit Ukraine to loosen limitations on the deployment of long-range missiles.
Which may be utilized to launch strikes deep inside Russia. It is anticipated that he will visit the US this week and do so once more.
Biden stated on Sunday that he was still unsure about whether to approve Ukraine. Everyone’s looking up to [Biden], and we need this to defend ourselves.
Zelensky told ABC, stating that the US would have to take the lead in making the decision.
Zelensky is scheduled to meet US presidential contenders Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in addition to giving a speech at the UN General Assembly on Wednesday.
Petr Pavel, the president of the Czech Republic, told the New York Times that Ukraine would need to be realistic.
About its chances of regaining the eastern regions of the nation that Russia has managed to seize over the course of the previous thirty-one months of fighting.
He continued by saying that the most likely result of the conflict would be that a portion of Ukrainian territory would be occupied by Russia for a considerable amount of time.
According to Pavel, a Russian or Ukrainian victory “will simply not happen.
And the conflict’s conclusion would occur “somewhere in between.”
Zelensky’s visit to the US coincides with Russia’s ongoing assault on Ukraine.
The Russian pressure on eastern Ukraine did not lessen in response to an August incursion by Ukrainian troops into the Kursk area of Russia.
Daily casualties and extensive damage to Ukraine’s energy infrastructure persist in several places. There are worries that Russia may take control of additional important eastern towns.

For the fall of Selydove, Toretsk, and Vuhledar in the eastern Donbas.
