Russian attacks on Kyiv and its surrounding areas, the longest of this year, have led Zelenskyy to state during his visit to Canada that the latest Russian strikes "clearly show that Putin does not want peace," and "we want peace, but he is a man of war." According to local officials, this air raid lasted nearly 10 hours, resulting in at least two deaths and 44 injuries, including two children. Deputy Prime Minister Oleksiy Kuleba of Ukraine said that over 40% of residential buildings in Kyiv have lost heating due to Russian air raids.

Zelenskyy is scheduled to meet with Trump in Florida on Sunday. On the plane flying to the United States, he stated that Ukraine should obtain legally binding security guarantees in any peace agreement. He also reiterated the call for strengthening Ukraine's air defense capabilities, as Ukraine needs more missiles due to Russia's continuous attacks. Trump said he expects the meeting with Zelenskyy "will go smoothly," but he also warned that "nothing will be obtained before I approve it." He also expressed his hope to speak with Putin "as soon as possible." Meanwhile, Putin said through TASS: "If Ukraine is unwilling to resolve the issue through peaceful means, Russia will achieve all the goals of the special military operation through military means."
