Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky presented a "victory plan" to parliament, outlining steps to strengthen Ukraine and end the war with Russia by next year. Key points include Ukraine joining NATO, long-range strikes on Russia, and no territorial compromise. Zelensky criticized Russia's allies, China, Iran, and North Korea, labeling them a "coalition of criminals." He plans to present the strategy at an EU summit. The Kremlin dismissed the plan, calling it "ephemeral." Zelensky emphasized continued military efforts against Russia, warning of President Putin's growing power and seeking further Western support for Ukraine’s war efforts.
