Zelenskyy, at UN, urges leaders to keep choking Russia’s revenues and impede its war efforts
Zelenskyy said Russia has used trade to fund its war and urged sanctions to stay in place as Kyiv seeks more air defense support.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday to choke Russia's revenues, arguing that trade with the aggressor directly finances the war effort.
- Russia invaded Ukraine more than 4 years ago, resulting in over 500,000 Russian troop deaths and 500,000 Ukrainian military casualties, including up to 140,000 deaths, according to Western analysts.
- Front-Line positions in eastern and southern Ukraine have remained largely unchanged since last year, while the war has disrupted global fuel, fertilizer, and grain shipments, widening divisions between Russia and the West.
- Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday that Russia is prepared to negotiate peace but rejects a temporary "pause," arguing it would allow Ukraine to acquire more weapons.
- Russia is scheduled to address the assembly this Saturday. President Vladimir Putin has not traveled to the gathering in years, instead sending Lavrov to represent the nation.
