Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has made a bold statement regarding Russian President Vladimir Putin’s future amid escalating tensions in Ukraine.
Speculation about Putin’s health has been circulating, with reports suggesting he may have had a minor stroke after being seen shaking uncontrollably at a conference. Rumors of his battle with cancer have also persisted over the years.
Zelensky, 47, met with French President Emmanuel Macron to discuss peace efforts following a recent ceasefire agreement brokered by the US in the Black Sea region. Despite the challenges posed by Russian actions, Zelensky expressed determination, stating, “He [Putin] will die soon, and that’s a fact, and it will come to an end.”
Zelensky also hinted at Putin’s attempts to destabilize the European Union, specifically mentioning Hungary’s alignment with Russia. However, he did not provide further details on Putin’s health status.
Despite ongoing peace talks, devastating airstrikes continue in Ukraine. Macron criticized Putin for repeatedly reinterpreting ceasefire agreements and emphasized that Russia cannot dictate the terms of lasting peace for Ukraine.
European Union leaders are set to meet to discuss ways to support Ukraine in the event of a permanent ceasefire deal, including the potential deployment of troops from willing EU nations to maintain peace on the ground.
Macron cautioned that any violation of a peace deal by Putin could lead to direct conflict with EU soldiers. In a show of support, Macron pledged an additional $2 billion in military aid to Ukraine, contrasting with former US President Donald Trump’s decision to temporarily halt military assistance to Ukraine.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte warned against unilateral security actions, highlighting concerns that the recent Black Sea ceasefire deal may favor Putin over Zelensky in their efforts to secure lasting peace for Ukraine.
Military analysts noted that the ceasefire deal could benefit Putin more than Zelensky, who is striving to secure a stable peace agreement for his country. Following extensive negotiations, both sides agreed to halt strikes in the Black Sea region and on energy infrastructure.
