Zelenskyy Aims to End War in 2025, Says Foreign Minister Sybiha

At the “Ukraine. Year 2025” forum, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha stated that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has set the objective of achieving a just peace in the ongoing war by the end of 2025.

According to Sybiha, Ukraine sees an opportunity to bring the war to a conclusion this year.

“A chance exists in this challenging and turbulent period. We are telling our partners that now is the time to fasten diplomatic seat belts. We must not be driven by emotions. I must emphasize the full mobilization of our diplomatic service, aimed at achieving a just peace and ending this war this year, as set by the President of Ukraine,” Sybiha said.

Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha criticized Russia’s attempt to introduce language about addressing the “root causes” of the war in a UN resolution, stating that these causes lie in Russia’s denial of Ukraine’s right to exist and Vladimir Putin’s intent to destroy the Ukrainian nation.
