Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky believes that the Russia-Ukraine conflict could be at its final stage. In a recent interview, he said that Ukraine is closer to peace than people think. Zelensky suggests that pressure from Ukraine on Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the fights could make the situation better. But for this purpose, the Ukrainian military must be stronger. He asked to the Western allies to give more support to strengthen the Ukraine army.
Zelensky is visiting the US to speak at the UN General Assembly.
He makes a “victory plan” that Zelensky presented in front of Western leaders, including the current President of the United States, Joe Biden. This visit highlights the President’s determination to achieve more military and political assistance. This support is necessary to attain long-lasting peace. By attaining Western support, Ukraine hopes to increase its position against Russia. This could result in an end to the fight between Russia and Ukraine.
Ukraine’s President, Volodymyr Zelensky shared his idea that has 3 key phases. The first phase is related to enhancing weapons support; the second is pursuing diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. The last phase is related to holding Russia accountable for its 2022 invasion. In his interview, he clearly mentioned that his strategy is not about negotiating with Russia. He wants to end the conflict by finding diplomatic ways.
At the same time, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that Russia will never end the war until the nation has achieved its goals. Zelensky has also requested Western nations to remove restrictions imposed on using long-range missiles. This permission could permit Ukraine to target deeper into Russia.
During his future visit to the United States. He aims to force the government to get permission to use long-range missiles. On this request, President Joe Biden said he has not made any final decision yet. Zlensky pointed out that without US support, Ukraine could not be successful in its mission to end the war.
During his visit to the US, President Zelensky met Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to express his opinion about how to end the war. Czech President Petr Pavel said that it is important for Ukraine to rely on real facts. Being realistic is necessary to get back the Eastern area that is currently under the leadership of Russia from the last 31 months of the war. According to him, some pieces of the land may remain under Russian territory. Pavel said that no party, Russia or Ukraine is likely to win completely. It seems like the war ended with some compromises.
Zelensky’s visit to the US comes as Russia keeps attacking Ukraine. An attempt by Ukraine to launch a military operation in Russia’s Kursk region in August did not help ease the pressure on eastern Ukraine. The situation is still very serious, with ongoing casualties and damage to energy facilities, raising worries that Russia may take on more important towns in eastern Ukraine.
Russia attacked a populated building in Kharkiv, which is a city in northeastern Ukraine, on Tuesday. The public around this housing society concluded that this attack was under glide bombs. Infrastructure was damaged during a previous strike in Poltava on Monday night. One person was killed and six injured by strong airstrikes in Zaporizhzhia.
Since the start of their full-scale invasion, Russian forces have been advancing on the city of Vuhledar, in eastern Ukraine. Residents of Selydove, Toretsk, and Vuhledar should brace themselves for potential losses, according to Ukrainian military expert Kostyantyn Mashovets. Although he hopes he is mistaken, he thinks this scenario is probably based on the circumstances at hand. As the conflict rages on, the attacks demonstrate the growing threat to Ukrainian cities.
