Ukraine's President Volodimir Zelenski stated during a nightly address that all intelligence assessments from Ukraine and its allies indicate that Russian President Vladimir Putin still intends to continue the war. He mentioned discussions with representatives of U.S. President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who are preparing for talks with Russia and potential visits to Ukraine. Zelenski emphasized that despite the majority of Russians possibly wanting to end the conflict, there are currently no signs that Moscow is willing to pursue peace. He expressed hope that the upcoming month of September could bring changes and urged cooperation with allies to protect lives and achieve peace.
