Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered a Christmas Eve message amid continued Russian attacks, saying Ukrainians share “one dream” and quoting the phrase “May he perish”—widely interpreted as a reference to Russian President Vladimir Putin—though he did not name him directly. Zelensky used the speech to emphasize unity, faith, and resilience despite missile and drone strikes that killed several people and caused power outages. He also reiterated Ukraine’s longing for peace and highlighted that true aspirations should focus on ending the war and securing peace for Ukrainian families. (PC: NDTV)
