Zelenskyy Delivers New Year’s Address Emphasizing Ukraine’s Resilience and Pursuit of Peace

Zelensky highlighted unresolved key issues including territorial disputes and security guarantees, urging sustained international pressure to prevent rewarding Moscow’s aggression.

  • On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his New Year's Eve address posted on Telegram that the peace deal is `10 percent` away and `The peace agreement is 90 percent ready. And that is far more than just numbers`.
  • Russia occupies around 20 percent of Ukraine and seeks full control of Donbas, while Kyiv warns ceding ground would embolden Moscow amid recent US-led diplomatic efforts.
  • Zelensky insisted that security intentions become binding guarantees by bodies like the US Congress and European parliaments, rejecting Budapest-style or Minsk-style weak accords and pledging peace for years.
