Zelenskyy tells UN that Putin will fail in Ukraine war

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told the UN General Assembly that Russian President Vladimir Putin will fail in his war efforts, urging nations to target Russia's financial capacity rather than oil prices. Zelenskyy cited a recent Truth Social post from US President Donald Trump, who called Ukraine's strikes on Russian energy facilities a "real blow" to Moscow, though Trump has pressured Ukraine to stop attacks due to diesel price concerns. Zelenskyy insisted oil is not the target, but Russia's ability to fund the war, and dismissed Putin's repeated promises of progress as shifting deadlines. He praised Ukraine's development of long-range drones that have reached Russian military factories in Siberia and the Yamal Peninsula, and warned countries whose citizens may be lured to fight for Russia not to let Moscow spend their lives.
