World not ready for Russia's defeat, says Zelenskyy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in an exclusive FOX News interview, said that the world is not ready for Russia's defeat in the war with Ukraine.

Asked when he thought the war would end after nearly two years of intensive fighting, Zelenskyy said that "The world is not really ready for Putin to be able to lose his power. The world is afraid of changes in Russian Federation. The United States and the European countries and the global South can choose".

Zelenskyy had this warning, "Putin has broken all the red lines. He's an inadequate person, that he was a threat to the whole world, that he will destroy NATO. And he will try to do that. So when the world will understand that, okay, that's it. So in this moment, the war will end".

Zelenskyy continues to insist that without aid from the West, Ukraine will not be able to maintain its defense but also to improve the strength of the country’s economy and stability, which could in turn allow the country to ramp up production of its own weapons again. Particularly, Kyiv needs "strong weapons, long-distance weapons, long-distance missiles and artillery." 

"It's not about the types, with the production," Zelenskyy clarified. "Increasing it each day, yes, and air defense just to defend people to give possibility, economy to increase it means give possibility of security situation."
