Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said at the Ambrosetti Forum in Italy that he has prepared a ceasefire plan with Russia and wants to discuss it with US President Joe Biden and US presidential candidates Harris and Trump.

The Forum, which is held in early September each year in the town of Chernobyl on the shores of Lake Como in Italy to discuss international developments, became the venue where Zelensky made assessments of the Ukraine-Russia war to Italian journalists.

“I have prepared a plan, and I want to share it with the president of the United States because there are certain points dependent on America. I’m hoping I’ll have an opportunity to show this plan to (Joe) Biden and the candidates and get feedback.” “Right now we haven’t shared anything, the first contact will be with Biden,” he clarified.

“We are closer to the end of the war than at the beginning,” said the Ukrainian president, adding that Kiev has strengthened its economy with specific agreements, and that Ukraine is nearing the end of the war because of the steps taken.

Zelensky has claimed that Russia used North Korean-made missiles to attack his country, and Ukraine has evidence, including fragments and videos. Iranian-made missiles and drones were also used, he said.
