Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in an interview broadcast on Sunday, said he wanted to ⁠press on with talks on securing peace with Russia before the onset of winter to take account of Kyiv’s improved strategic position.

Talks brokered by the United States on moving toward a peace accord have stalled as Washington has focused on the conflict ​in Iran.

Zelenskyy and other Ukrainian officials have said the advance of Russian forces ‌has slowed ‌on the ground while Ukraine has intensified a campaign ​of medium- and long-range strikes inside Russia, targeting mainly Russia’s oil industry.
