Zelensky answers Moscow visit question: "On a rocket"

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responded sharply to a provocative question from Russian propagandists at the UN General Assembly about visiting Moscow, saying "On a rocket." The exchange was captured on video. Russian journalists shouted the question to Zelensky on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. The Kremlin has repeatedly stated that a meeting between the Ukrainian president and Russian dictator is only possible in Moscow, rejecting alternative negotiation platforms. Earlier that day, Zelensky stated Putin wants to capture Odesa, Kharkiv, and Dnipro. Ukrainian forces have liberated 800 square kilometers since early 2026, while Russian forces captured 890, with Zelensky noting net Russian advances are only 90-100 square kilometers.
