At the U.N. General Assembly in New York, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky opened his address by endorsing a Truth Social post from U.S. President Donald Trump. Trump had said repeated Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian energy targets had harmed Russia’s diesel supplies and called for an end to the war. Zelensky said he knew no world leader who would disagree, except Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom he identified as the only leader openly supporting the conflict. Zelensky also said he was prepared for a trilateral meeting with Russia and the United States, but that Putin was not, and he urged U.N. members to keep supporting Ukraine through a difficult winter.
