In a speech that received a standing ovation from the World Economic Forum in Davos, the Ukrainian president said the Putin had stolen 13 years of peace and would only respond to military defeat. “Ukraine can prevail in this war but we must continue to empower their resistance,” von der Leyen said in her keynote address. Zelenskiy said he doubted that “freezing the war in Ukraine” would actually end the conflict. “Strengthen our economy and we will strengthen your security,” he said. “The more money Putin and his allies lose, the more he will regret this war,” Zelenskiy added.
