Speaking via video link at the G-7 Summit, Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged Russia to at least try to prove that it is capable of abandoning aggression as Christmas approaches.
“This is the time for normal people to think about peace, not aggression,” he said, adding, “If Russia withdraws its troops from Ukraine, it will ensure a lasting cessation of hostilities.”
Zelenskyy argued that Russia’s answer to the call would show what the Russians really want -- peace or war.
“The one who brought the war upon us has to take it away,” he added.
