Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that Ukraine’s "Victory Plan" is now 90% complete. He shared that the plan outlines several key areas, including military, political, diplomatic, and economic strategies. Zelenskyy emphasized that the "necessary steps" are clearly defined and aim to position Kyiv as strongly as possible to achieve "real and just peace."
Confident in the plan’s potential, he added, "There is nothing impossible in this plan," and confirmed that it will be presented to Ukraine’s allies next week. He also expressed gratitude to those worldwide who are supporting Ukraine in its defense.
At the same time, Estonia’s president, Alar Karis, voiced his strong support for lifting all restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Western missiles, urging that "all red lines" must be crossed to force Russia out of Ukraine. Karis, whose country shares a border with Russia, stated that Ukraine should be allowed to target Russian drones at their origin, preventing them from reaching Ukraine and neighboring countries.
This topic, whether Ukraine should be permitted to strike Russian territory with long-range missiles, has been a focal point in international discussions. When UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer met with U.S. President Joe Biden recently, this issue was expected to be addressed, though no concrete commitments were made.
Meanwhile, Germany has pledged an additional €100 million in aid to Ukraine for the upcoming winter. During a visit to Moldova, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock warned of Russia’s intent to wage a "winter war" aimed at making life unbearable for Ukrainians.
Ukraine has requested more air defense systems to protect its critical infrastructure, particularly as freezing winter temperatures approach. However, there are concerns about Germany’s long-term support, as it was reported that Germany plans to reduce its military aid to Ukraine by half next year, according to a draft budget for 2025.
