NNA - Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday said he wanted to get solid security guarantees from Kyiv's Western partners that would enable the war with Russia to end in 2025.

"We want security guarantees this year, because we want to end the war this year," Zelensky said during a press conference in Kyiv, a day after the US and Russian foreign ministers held talks in Saudi Arabia to which Kyiv was not invited. -- AFP
