President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, during a video call with G7 leaders, outlined three steps for securing peace. First, Zelensky said the first step is a “new force,” and he requested more military equipment from the G7. Also, Ukraine needs more rocket artillery and long-range missiles, adding that Ukraine needs constant artillery support, which requires additional guns and shells. Secondly, according to Zelenskyy, is for the leaders to maintain financial, energy, and social stability next year. In the third and final step, Zelenskyy said Ukraine would like to offer a peace solution, beginning with asking Russia to start withdrawing troops this Christmas.
